심성과 심성 함양: 형이상학과 메타프락시스, 그리고 대동사회

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to understand in more detail what the nature of metapraxis is, which contrasts with both metaphysics and praxis. On the other hand, it is to clarify how metapraxis discussions can contribute to the advent of the great society by critically approaching the discussion of ‘post-humanism’ in which postmodernism, which excludes the metaphysics of modern society, is expressed in a more extreme form in conjunction with neo-liberalism. By discussing this by setting a sub-topic of the main angle, perspective, and surface and in-depth, it was possible to make it clearer that metapraxis contrasts with both metaphysics and praxis, not that they are excluded, but that they are integrated ‘organically’ (or consistently). It was also clarified that metapraxis is based on ‘metaphysics’. Therefore, the trend that excludes metaphysics in the discussion of modern post-humanism is at the opposite point of humanism, which is a trend that is further away from the great society related to the love of Christianity, the mercy of Buddhism, and the humanity of Confucianism. Thus, the educational discourse form as an alternative to this, that is, ‘metapraxis’, secures its status as a theory of life beyond its status as an educational theory.
