(Original title: Problémy a postavenie axiológie)
Filozofia, 23 (1968), 2, 113-128.Abstract

In this way, the interest arose in the problems of evaluation and values, in the nature of evaluating criteria and norms and in the whole area of phenomena… Read more

(Original title: Mnohoznačnost pojmu hodnota)

(Original title: Subjekt a objekt — kategória relatívnej diskontinuity praxe)
Filozofia, 23 (1968), 2, 179-186.Abstract
The relation between subject and object is studied from the viewpoint of their univocal employment in philosophical explication of social regularities as forms of determination of subjects' activity. Subject and object are comprehended as categories of the relative discontinuity of practice, the latter being understood as their continuity. Practice is a purposeful… Read more
