INDIVIDUALISM OF ACADEMIC PEDAGOGUES

Abstract

Philosophical premises suggest to think and accept the ancient origin of the category of human individualism. The development of ideas on human individualism goes back to the philosophy of politics and to the ethics of the Age of the Enlightenment. That development has also inspired a parallel transformation of the humanism in further epochs. From the origin and presumptions of individualism on the ground and in the opposition to the sociology of a group and the psychology of individual being, some values have been derived. Those values have made a foundation for academic teachers’ peculiarities fostering individual existence/behaviours and absolute freedom. Those features make a conjunction with scientific and creative function of an academic pedagogue, who is thus: independent, dissimilar to others, calm to some norms, like moral ones, distinctive in thinking, creative, full of passion, and satisfied by his/her work at the university. Both, humanistic psychology and pedeutology which agrees to such humanistic view of academic pedagogue – his personality and his ways of acting, bring presumptions to express his/her individualism in the whole variety of possibilities – between menaces and social and pedagogical chances/perspectives.<br/><br/>
