Clara Sterns Beitrag zum Kritischen Personalismus und zur personalistischen Pädagogik
摘要
Critical personalism is not only a comprehensive philosophical system that interprets social and personal dimensions but also an academic discipline with significant implications for educational and developmental psychology. Within this framework, Clara Stern holds a prominent role, particularly in laying the foundation for personalistic pedagogy. Her contributions are exemplified in her anonymously published monograph Aus einer Kinderstube. Tagebuchblätter einer Mutter, which serves as a basis for deriving principles of personalistic pedagogy. This study not only analyzes pedagogical guidelines—rooted in Clara Stern’s child-rearing practices and observations—but also suggests foundational principles for future research within critical personalism. The theoretical insights contributing to a personalistic pedagogy include the following: an understanding of one’s own dynamic purpose system and its formative influence; the consolidation of dispositions of directionality and scaffolding in handling everyday and developmental challenges; the strengthening of the vital foundation of the child or adolescent; the acquisition of negotiation strategies for reconciling self- and foreign-purposes (introception); and the reinforcement of cognitive components of Geborgenheit. Finally, the implications of these findings for critical personalism are discussed, which lead to potential avenues for revision within the field.
