At the Root of Alternative Thinking. A Critical Analysis of Bogdan Suchodolski’s Study on Stanisław Brzozowski
Journal Title: Studies in Global Ethics and Global Education - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue
Abstract
The article introduces the criticism of the Polish version of “philosophy of life” (Lebensphilopsohie) developed by Stanisław Brzozowski and further developed by Bogdan Suchodolski. Being the most distinguished Polish representative of “new humanism”, Suchodolski criticises in two dimensions the philosophy of life developed by Brzozowski, his tendency to reshape man on behalf of the ideal of power and to impose on people, on behalf of the same ideal, the will of organised groups. Suchodolski confronts these ideals by referring to the tradition of the human being who distances themselves from the fascination of power in favour of moderation and inner harmony as well as the ideal of humanity, striving for the harmonious and sustainable development of the contemporary civilisation.
