PHILOSOPHY OF THE WORLD TWENTY YEARS AFTER
AUGSBURG-ZAGREB PHILOSOPHICAL DISCUSSIONS
The art of discussing has a long philosophical tradition which is consisted
of visits and reciprocation of visits, states Alexander Thumfart. That is exactly
how Augsburg-Zagreb philosophical discussions have been conducted, firstly
in Augsburg in 1988, than in Zagreb in 1990 and again in Augsburg in 1993.
Augsburg-Zagreb philosophical discussions were engaged in the problem of
understanding the notion of the world in philosophy by which the notion of the
world appeared in the centre of philosophical thinking. In this paper cosmological
and anthropological understanding of the notion of the world will be
presented. This division appeared as a result of a research of scientific papers
which were published in journal Filozofska istraživanja (Philosophical Researches)
as proceedings of Augsburg-Zagreb conferences. On the other hand,
it can be said that today, twenty years after Augsburg-Zagreb discussions, the
contemplation of the notion of the world is once again present by development
of bioethics from medical ethics to integrative bioethics. The deliberation of
the notion of the world as a representation of the idea of whole, with its basic
comprehensive character and constructing as its ground principle is imposed
as a response to particularism and monoperspectivism of contemporary science.
Since integrative bioethics appeared as an alternative to that, exclusively
scientific image of the world, it can be said that philosophy of the world which
is developed in a framework of Augsburg-Zagreb philosophical discussions is
giving another impulse to its further development and articulation.

godine. Svoje stavove o domoljublju on preuzima od engleskog filozofa i sociologa,
oštrog kritičara patriotizma Herberta Spencera (1820–1903). U radu će
tako biti izneseno i Spencerovo razumijevanje domoljublja. Pod domoljubljem
Arnold podrazumijeva osjećaj ponosa koji pojedinac ima prema cjelini kojoj
pripada. On smatra kako pretjerano domoljublje u narodu pobuđuje taštinu i
