ISLAMIC EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT BASED ON UNITY OF SCIENCES PARADIGM

The focus of this research lies in the philosophical analysis of Islamic education based on the Unity of Sciences paradigm. So far, no researcher has studied this issue specifically and comprehensively. This study uses a philosophical and phenomenological approach of library research. The finding shows that the development of managed Islamic education has both human and divine potential. Unity of Sciences has become the basis for creating a balanced Islamic education paradigm with humanization and spiritualization strategies. Therefore, development of Islamic education based on Unity of Sciences can produce modern scientists who are religious and not anti-local culture. Thus, this paradigm encourages scientists to dialogue and reciprocally lead someone closer and closer to God, the Most True (al-Ḥaqq). This paradigm is implemented into the curriculum at State Islamic University (UIN) Walisongo Semarang.

Perception of Greed and Unfairness

In the past decade, interest in greed among empirical business scholars has emerged. It starts with the trailblazing attempt to analyze greed by Wang and Murnighan (2011), followed by the development of the Dispositional Greed Scale by Seuntjens et. al. (2015a, 2015b), which serves as a basis for the research done by Zhu et. al. (2019) and Bao et. al. (2020). However, since Seuntjens’ work, the overwhelming focus has been on greed as a disposition to “always want more and never being satisfied with what one currently has” (Seuntjens et. al., 2015b). Independently, Cheung (2019) proposed a more sophisticated philosophical analysis of greed, which argues that there are three dimensions of greed, and its dimension of unfairness has largely been neglected. This article reports on our investigation of that neglected dimension of greed. Our cross-cultural study (n=395) shows that when the rating of greediness was not very high, the perception of greed went hand in hand with the perception of unfairness, such that there was a positive linear association between the two. The demographics of the participants suggests that the sample is diverse enough to make a broad generalization. The result of this study confirms the conception of greed in Cheung (2019), which claims that the perception of unfairness, i.e., (2) above, is a significant component of perceived greed. Cheung’s account of greed can also explain the data when the rating of greediness is very high, but logically there could be other explanations.

Heritage of Tradition from Avesto: Philosophical Analysis

The article analyzes the heritage of Avesto from a philosophical point of view and gives a philosophical interpretation of the role of myths. At the same time, special attention is paid to the perception of the structure of the world. The ideas and philosophy of Avesto that have come down to us show that our ancestors who lived in the Zoroastrian era had a high level of worldview and thinking. Even in these distant times, our ancestors are struck by the fact that the deepest thinking, attitude to nature, existence, integrity and integrity of the universe, nature and human dignity, as well as the preservation of the Motherland are the main tasks of mankind.

Philosophical Discourse for the Development and Improvement of the Intellectualization of Human Nature

The principal goal of the study is to characterize the philosophical discourse of the development and improvement of human nature in the context of its intellectualization. The article uses a set of methods that make it possible to reveal a philosophical analysis of the development and improvement of human nature in the context of its intellectualization, in particular: general scientific methods; logical methods of theoret- ical analysis; technical analysis, clarification. Because of the study, the philosophical aspects of the devel- opment and improvement of human nature in the context of its intellectualization were characterized. The needs of the modern economic, political, spiritual development of society require further, deeper research of the actual problems of the doctrine of man. Therefore, interest in man and humanity is becoming espe- cially acute, prompting to justify social and cultural transformations.

Socio-Philosophical Analysis of Mass Media as a Factor in the Formation of Public Opinion

Computer and telecommunication technologies have led to the development of modern mass media and have made significant competition with the print edition (newspapers, magazines, and books), the dominance of telecracy, etc. The media have gone a significant path of development from a channel of information and entertainment to a political institution, significantly increasing their capabilities as an in- strument of influencing public consciousness. The study?s main purpose is to conduct a socio-philoso- phical analysis of mass media as a factor in the formation of public consciousness. In this article, the pro- cess of cognition of mass media and socio-philosophical analysis of its impact on society were used: gen- eral scientific methods; logical methods of theoretical analysis; technical analysis, clarification.

Flashcard Games As A Learning Tool : Internalizing The Practical Values Of Pancasila

This paper discusses new possible efforts to internalize the values of Pancasila through a flashcard game. This is because these values can be taught in a fun way through games. Internalization of these values can be done explicitly or implicitly in several aspects of the game, namely the rules of the game, the characters, and the narrative. The discussion begins with a hermeneutic analysis of Pancasila values that will be internalized to the game participants. The method used was hermeneutics as a tool of philosophical analysis to obtain a practical concept of the philosophical values of Pancasila. Furthermore, these practical values will be used in the effort to internalize values through flashcards games. The results of the analysis were simplified so that they can be used as a narrative and reference for the game, as well as a reference for game rules. The conclusion is that the flashcards game can be used as a means of internalizing the values of Pancasila if these values can be comprehensively expressed in the narrative, flow, and rules of the game.

Linguistic Scaffolding and Scientific Realism

The various “small metaphysics” puzzles that this book surveys suggest their proper resolutions requires an expanded appreciation of the strategic underpinnings of fruitful descriptive endeavor. In doing so, philosophical analysis should study linguistic adaptation in the same naturalistic spirit as a biologist investigates the environmental adaptations of a particular animal or plant. Doing so effectively requires attending to shaping considerations that arise from a wide variety of sources, including the issues of computational complexity that supply multiscalar tactics with their significant advantages. For various reasons that ultimately trace to the theory T thinking that this book rejects, the philosophical notion of “scientific realism” has become unhappily aligned with various simplistic assumptions with respect to effective word/world alignment. Our conceptions of scientific and linguistic possibility have suffered greatly as a result.

A Critical Analysis of Brentano’s Intentionality in Relation to Meinong’s Object Theory

Our thoughts are certainly about things(objects), however, what kind of things(object) are our thoughts directed at? What is the relationship between mental objects and external world object? What is the nature and character of mental and extra mental objects? An attempt at answering these meta-epistemological questions, brought to light the ideas of Franz Brentano on ‘Intentionality’ and Alexius Meinong’s Theory of object. Through proper method of philosophical analysis, it was discovered that both philosophers agreed that intentionality is a unique character exhibited by the human mind. However, Meinong went further to develop a more comprehensive object theory which attempts at clarifying some of the ontological difficulties associated with Brentano’s notion on intentionality. The research concluded that, though, both philosophers had areas of divergence and convergence in their respective epistemological thoughts, but insisted that the influence of Brentano’s ideas on Meinong cannot be overemphasized, which is to say, Meinong’s object theory, could be said to be a reaction towards the problem of referential opacity present in Brentano’s account of Intentionality.
