In our time, a time of fundamental societal changes associated with the development of the world socialist system, which conditions the progressive course of mankind's social development, the problem of the prevention of war has come to be of immense importance. This problem has not only the greatest practical significance, but also a theoretical, philosophical aspect. The philosophical aspect of this problem is reflected, in the first place, in the fact that some hold the view that a new world war (...) is predestined by history, and represents a fatal inevitability, so that struggle against it is "Utopian." This view denies the possibility of peaceful coexistence among the given countries differing in societal and political systems. Such a position is in irreconcilable contradiction with the teachings of Marxism-Leninism, which stand opposed to the bourgeois conceptions of Karl Jaspers, W. Schmidt, Raymond Aron, G. Wetter, and many others who employ pseudoscientific argumentation to propagate the idea that such peaceful coexistence is impossible. (shrink)

Die religionstheologische Hermeneutik der Gegenwartskultur ist zu einem grundlegenden Forschungsfeld einer sich als Theorie der Religionspraxis verstehenden Praktischen Theologie geworden. Das Asthetische ist als eine zentrale Dimension des Kulturellen deshalb neu in den Mittelpunkt der Aufmerksamkeit geruckt. Die Erforschung der Zusammenhange von <I>Asthetik und Religion steht jedoch erst am Anfang. Mit dem Band kann ein teilweiser Uberblick uber den Stand der Diskussion zum Thema <I>Identitat und Differenz von asthetischer und religioser Erfahrung gegeben werden. Er bietet eine Zusammenschau unterschiedlicher Zugange zu (...) den Phanomenen bzw. differenter Theoriestrategien und weist Perspektiven fur den interdisziplinaren Diskurs auf, in denen die theoretischen Voraussetzungen und methodischen Massgaben fur die Verhaltnisbestimmung von religioser und asthetischer Erfahrung zu klaren sind.".

Context: Although there are rich descriptive accounts of skill acquisition in the literature, there are no satisfactory explanatory models of the cognitive processes involved. Problem: The aim of the paper is to explain some key phenomena frequently observed in the acquisition of motor skills: the loss of conscious access to knowledge of the structure of a skill and the awareness that an error has been made prior to the receipt of knowledge of results. Method: In the 1970s, the first author (...) implemented a computer program model of the cognitive processes involved in learning and skill acquisition, based on a series of empirical investigations. Recently, with assistance from the second author, the model has been reviewed, updated and re-implemented. Result: The model provides a constructivist account of skill acquisition and associated phenomena. Implications: The model adds to the understanding of motor skill acquisition and will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in physical therapy and sports science. It is also provides a constructivist cognitive architecture that can be fruitfully contrasted with non-constructivist cognitive architectures well-known in cognitive science. (shrink)
