How can philosophy help evaluate your relationship with others?
Important values related to intersubjectivity include acceptance of differences and embracing diversity. When we look at physical traits even behavior, we can see that no two persons are exactly a like and think the same. We have to accept that people will have different views and beliefs.
Alienation- a pessimistic view that considers human relationship frustrating
and often inauthentic or deceptive.
Example of people with disabilities who have successfully risen above their physical limitations to live productive lives.
Hellen Keller- the first deaf-blind person to earn a bachelor’s degree. She
summa cum laude from Ateneo De Manila University in 2001.
The Use of Authentic Dialogue
Authentic dialogue is a form of interpersonal communication wherein individuals acknowledge that they are part of greater whole and that they resonate with others within the whole. This occurs when individuals learn to set aside their personal biases and begin seeing themselves in others through communarization.
In this sense, other people, including the marginalized sector, are seen as functional parts of a whole. No biases or preferences are exemplified during the dialogue because individual has learned to perceive and communicate with others with a sense of community and oneness.
