Looking Back

Thomas Aquinas’s theory of pleasure and joy has many implications of Plato’s thinking, that pleasure must have a certain measure and different degrees, and especially of Aristotle’s teaching about the relationship between pleasure and affection, pleasure and action. Thomas holds pleasure to be given, when a present good is comprehended as attractive, when a soul turns to it and reaches the point of rest in it. Thomas is convicted, that the delectationes intelligibiles are superior to the delectationes sensibiles by reason of their higher union with the intelligible. Looking back to Aristotle Thomas sees the causae delectationis in operation (related to natural love of the self) and in motion. The pleasure of the good person is for Thomas a moral norm of acting: Good is, who has joy to act virtuous. Generally we can speak of a renaissance of pleasure as a category of ethics in the thought of Thomas Aquinas.

And Behavior

Self-perception, as a part of self - concept, is a form of perception where the object being observed and the observer are one and the same. The self-concept is a cognitive structure and it mediates between social structures and behavior. In group psychotherapy, a therapist's interventions are focused on the replacement of a false paranoid identity (where the overestimation of one's own intelligence is part of the false image one has of himself) with a real one. Six psychotherapeutic groups of paranoid patients were studied. The methodological procedure known as the analysis of relations was used. It is a combination of the sociometric questionnaire and the test of social perception. The degree of appropriateness of auto-perception of intelligence is evaluated. The determination of the auto-perception of intelligence was carried out by comparing real ranks (from the real IQ) and the ascribed ranks (on the basis of the selected positions where the patient marked his own intelligence to be). The results for all the groups are consistent: there is a definitive (both in terms of the number and the degree) overestimation of one's own intelligence. It can be found at the basis of the paranoid pathology expression where we find the parallel nature of the projection of the introject of the aggressor and the introject of narcissistic superiority, partially incorporated into the unreal self concept. Psychotherapy at this level of solidly fixated conceptual categorization with a “falsification” of perceptual data is of crucial importance for the “dissolution” of the paranoid state.

Leadership is about all of us, but dominant frames of leadership serve only a few. In this commentary, we challenge the dominance of Western notions of leadership as linear influence relationships in order to shift Pasifika engagement from the margins. For us, ta’ita’i (Pasifika leadership) is centred on serving, not the self, but the collective spirit. It is expansive, holistic, and grounded in reciprocal relationships between people, nature, the cosmos and those of the past, present, and future. Looking back to the teachings of our families and ancestors can guide us in leading communities with strength, unity, and connection. Rather than deny the legitimate place of Western notions of leadership or romanticise ideas of Pasifika leadership, through talanoa (open talk), we mobilise tofā sa’ili (a search for wisdom and meaning) by engaging with traditional Pasifika cultural values and philosophies that hold significance for leadership in early childhood education in Aotearoa New Zealand. In doing so, we hope to open up pathways of thinking that move us beyond individualistic framings of leadership, while honouring Pasifika ways of knowing and being in serving the collective.

Resumen: A través de la lectura de las crónicas sobre el VIH/sida de Marta Dillon y Joaquín Hurtado, analizo cómo estos autores narran la convivencia crónica con el VIH que les impone el aprendizaje de nuevas formas de gestionar la vida y de autorrepresentarse. Estudio las crónicas no solo como estrategias terapéuticas para lidiar con los profundos cambios corporales y emocionales que trae consigo el diagnóstico, sino también como estrategias políticas para incidir en la normalización y percepción social de la enfermedad como entidad crónica. La reescritura del cuerpo, consustancial al devenir crónico de la enfermedad, enfrenta a los autores a cuestionar la improductividad o incapacidad de los sujetos afectados por el VIH, y los límites entre el yo y el otro (virus); la salud y la enfermedad, todo ello en el contexto de la medicalización contemporánea de los cuerpos y las subjetividades. Palabras Clave: VIH/sida, representación, crónicas, enfermedad crónica, cuerpo, subjetividad Abstract: Through the reading of the chronicles on HIV / AIDS by Marta Dillon and Joaquín Hurtado, I analyze how these authors narrate the chronic coexistence with the HIV that imposes on them the learning of new ways of managing life and self-representation. I study the texts by Dillon and Hurtado not only as therapeutic strategies to deal with the impacts on bodies and emotions that the diagnosis brings but also as political strategies in order to change the social perception of the disease as a chronic condition. Through the rewriting of the body, inherent to the chronic evolution of the disease, the authors question the unproductivity or incapacity of the subjects affected by HIV and the limits between the self and the other (virus), health and illness, all in the context of the contemporary medicalization of bodies and subjectivities. Key words: HIV/AIDS, representation, chronic disease, chronicle, body, subjectivity
