Philosophical handling of "Idiographic Approach”
View through CrossRef
In general a philosophical approach is classified into Western and Eastern. But then, when it comes to the handling of subjects like Ethics, Morality and to a large extent human-temperament, there is no visible schism in the viewpoints. A philosophical outlook usually deals with queries related to people's varied levels of comprehension and reactions towards a set of situations. In this regard the classic philosophical approach is quite obvious and common with the sensitive minds which permit very little scope to flexibility, in handling perceptions. Philosophical approaches do help us to remove the ambiguities or rather vagueness clearly present in our expressions. At the same time a verbose write-up or prolix lecture, for some time might impress us but would lead nowhere. It is in this context that a philosophical approach, which takes into consideration "behavioural psychological facts", is of utmost importance to gain clarity. The idealistic proposals that impress us in general in all fields, somehow do not provide a thorough satisfaction in case of "human behaviour". It is an open fact that there are a huge number of complicated factors which relentlessly influence human mind /nature. One of the major ones is "circumstances" having a thorough hold, owing to which the bookish principles in practice miserably fail. In order to overcome psychological disorders, there have been various methods employed. However, Freud's exhaustive case study approach stands valid even today. Therefore, in the modern times we understand the need of getting into details of each case to reach the roots and then apply remedial methods. Despite so many solutions that are proposed, yet tackling the problems with a philosophical outlook, somehow is not encouraged. Human nature had been burdened by many ideologies, mostly in a theoretical manner. Since the results are not arriving as surmised, it is almost declared that functioning of human nature is enigmatic. This paper explores the possibility of philosophical handling of this tricky problem by proposing certain reflective ideas.
Title: Philosophical handling of "Idiographic Approach”
Description:
In general a philosophical approach is classified into Western and Eastern.
But then, when it comes to the handling of subjects like Ethics, Morality and to a large extent human-temperament, there is no visible schism in the viewpoints.
A philosophical outlook usually deals with queries related to people's varied levels of comprehension and reactions towards a set of situations.
In this regard the classic philosophical approach is quite obvious and common with the sensitive minds which permit very little scope to flexibility, in handling perceptions.
Philosophical approaches do help us to remove the ambiguities or rather vagueness clearly present in our expressions.
At the same time a verbose write-up or prolix lecture, for some time might impress us but would lead nowhere.
It is in this context that a philosophical approach, which takes into consideration "behavioural psychological facts", is of utmost importance to gain clarity.
The idealistic proposals that impress us in general in all fields, somehow do not provide a thorough satisfaction in case of "human behaviour".
It is an open fact that there are a huge number of complicated factors which relentlessly influence human mind /nature.
One of the major ones is "circumstances" having a thorough hold, owing to which the bookish principles in practice miserably fail.
In order to overcome psychological disorders, there have been various methods employed.
However, Freud's exhaustive case study approach stands valid even today.
Therefore, in the modern times we understand the need of getting into details of each case to reach the roots and then apply remedial methods.
Despite so many solutions that are proposed, yet tackling the problems with a philosophical outlook, somehow is not encouraged.
Human nature had been burdened by many ideologies, mostly in a theoretical manner.
Since the results are not arriving as surmised, it is almost declared that functioning of human nature is enigmatic.
This paper explores the possibility of philosophical handling of this tricky problem by proposing certain reflective ideas.
