Outline of Research at the Start

本研究は、「規範性をもった自然的存在」である人間を「第二の自然(second nature)」という視角から照射することにより、人間の自然性と社会性を定位しなおし、その観点から教育の世界で影響力をもちつつある「脳・心・教育」プログラムを精査するものである。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

The main aim of this research programme was to clarify the conception of human beings as natural creatures in a normative environment. Drawing mainly on the work of John McDowell and David Bakhurst, this programme also aimed to develop a critique of the prevalent, natural-scientific understanding of human beings as natural animals. The results from this four-year project are the following: 1) that a proper appreciation of the notion of second nature allows us not to separate human nature from our animal nature. thereby making it possible to bring the issue of human nature (again) within the scope of the philosophical study of education, and 2) that a McDowellian-Bakhurstian view of our natural life-form enables us to see that the rational-conceptual capacities that can be deliberatively exercised with explicit self-consciousness are also operative when one does not exercise the ability to step back or when one engages in activities where nothing is discursively explicit.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

近年のいっそうの自然科学研究の進展により、人間理解の中心は、人間の動物的自然性に基づく自然科学的人間像に占められつつあり、その影響は教育領域にも及んでいる。しかし教育研究においては、このような「自然主義」の特質を見定めて、乱立する個別研究の意義と限界を明らかにする研究が、国内外を問わず、決定的に欠けている。本プロジェクトは、自然主義をもっとも積極的に検討してきた分析哲学の展開を足掛かりに、教育と自然主義の見通しづらい関係を理論的に解きほぐし、より建設的な教育研究、教育理解の方向性の一端を提示した。
