Abstract

The point of reference for the problem outlined in the title are the three inseparable ideas defining the condition of the present and its praxis. They can be described, in general terms, as the ethe of polysemy and cultural pluralism, of democracy and social transparency, and finally of human rights and the empowerment of the individual. These ethe are taken, for the purpose of this work, as defining the boundaries of pedagogical thought as far as it aspires to be considered truly contemporary. Describing some school of thought as contemporary from the point of view of boundaries of its worldview discursivity requires distinguishing two basic ways of understanding what contemporary means. The specific nature of pedagogical thought as one of the cognitive perspectives of general pedagogy is considered in this context, and formal criteria for assessing scientific value of contemporary pedagogical thought are formulated with the above assumptions in mind.

Keywords:

pedagogical theory, general pedagogy, pedagogical thought, phenomenological analysis, epistemological and methodological polysemy
