Duhovna kriza, vrednote in psihologija

Musek, Janek (author)

Danes se pogosto govori o vrednotni, moralni in duhovni krizi človeštva. Res je sicer, da se je o teh pojavih razpravljalo v vseh obdobjih moderne dobe in morda civilizacije nasploh. Najbrž pa je tudi res, da ima vsaka doba svojo krizo in ji daje svoj pečat, Kaj lahko kot psihologi rečemo o tej, naši sodobni krizi vrednot, morale in duha? Analiza pojmovanj krize vrednot in duhovne krize kaže, da moramo ločevati med pojavi kot so vrednotna praznina, vrednotna zmedda in vrednotna konfliktnost. V mnogih primerih se namreč omanjena kriza pokaže predvsem kot nejasnost in konfliktnost v vrednotnem sistemu (hierarhiji). Psihologija lahko kot ena izmed vodilnih znanosti, ki seukvarjajo z vrednotami, moralo in človekovim duhovnim delovanjem, prispeva kpojasnjevanju vseh teh kriz. Mislim da lahko prispeva največ, če izhaja iz svojih lastnih ugotovitev, ki zadevajo človekovo naravo. Po teh ugotovitvah bilahko govorili o naravni razvojni hierarhiji, ki zajema vse glavne kategorije vrednot: hedonistične, potenčne (statusne), moralne in izpolnitvene. Ta hierarhija je lahko kažipot izhoda iz človekove permanentne vrednotne, moralne, duhovne krize.

Abstract

Nowadays, the crisis of values and the moral crisis of humanity are quite commonly used terms. Novertheless, the moral crisis and the crisis of values have been encountered in past times also and maybe the most accurate observation could be expressed by the statement that each human generation lives and deals with its own crisis in a specific way. What has psychology to say about our contemporaneous crisis of values, of morality and of the spiritual state of mankind? The analysis of the conceptions of moral and valuecrisis compels us to distinguish more clearly between different events concerning the values, like the vacuum of values, the confusion of values and the conflict of values. In many respects the crisis of values appears prevalently in the form of confusion and conflict in the value systems. Psychology could clarify many puzzling phenomena inplicated in the relationship between our values and our bahavior. Many aspects of the sometimes astonishing gap extending between the values and the factual behavior could be explained by psychological factors. Psychological discoveries revealing the inner structure of individual values and the developmental hierarchy of values could help us to overcome better the permanent human crisis regarding our valuing, moral and personal conduct. By following the natural development of value orientation, a human being could succesfully cope with moral and other personal problems.
