| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research explored the philosophy of human relationships found in the Kyoto School of Philosophy. The Kyoto School and peripheral thinkers like Watsuji Tetsuro share a "relational philosophy of nothingness," where relationships are based not on the self-interest of egos but on mutual emptying and transformation. This relational philosophy can be communitarian, or it can be universal-mystical. Furthermore, the universal-mystical type can have differing views on individual uniqueness and alterity.
All these relational philosophies can contribute to western theories such as postmodernism, post-structuralism, and philosophy of education. Furthermore, these ideas change the way we think about educative relationships (parent-child, teacher-student, counselor-client), and can therefore be very practical.
