Or, to consider the definition most relevant to our purposes, Praxis is the relationship between theory and practice. In 1963, the University of Zagreb, Croatia (then, Yugoslavia) opened their first international summer school on the island of Korcula, and the main symposium was organized by a group of forward-thinking philosophers, sociologists, economists, and historians who wrote for the Zagreb review, “Praxis.” The Praxis School was essentially a Marxist Humanist philosophical movement that had its roots in both Zagreb and Belgrade. Their emphasis was on the writings of the young Marx and in opening an inquiry into the future of mankind.

Baily B.S., Texas A&M University—Commerce, 1999 M.A., Louisiana State University, 2003 December, 2006 It has been well said that the highest aim in education is analogous to the highest aim in mathematics, namely, to obtain not results but powers , not particular solutions but the means by which endless solutions may be wrought. He is the most effective educator who aims less at perfecting specific acquirements that at producing that mental condition which renders acquirements easy, and leads to their useful application; who does not seek to make his pupils moral by enjoining particular courses of action, but by bringing into activity the feelings and sympathies that must issue in noble action.

THE “ COMMON m a n ” VERSUS “ PRIVILEGE” The cult of the “ Common Man” and the corresponding hatred of “ Privilege” constitute the classic ideological bridges, connecting-links, or portages as it were, between equalitarian “progressive” Democracy and Communism — or to put it with greater precision,from Democracy to Communism. The principle of social levelling and monism they express (in the language fashionable to-day) is what underlies the logic of that final and suicidal surrender of Democracy to Communism which powerful forces in the midst of our society are seeking to bring about: a surrender to be experienced, at the same time, as a dialectical self-fulfilment, an historical consummation, a self-transcending apotheosis of Democracy.

The present is a site of contestation between memory and history, as well as a site for recounting the distant past by reflecting it through the prism of the present. The transition from the Soviet Union to independent states in 1991 triggered tensions within these newly created nation-states, with the collective and individual past being given a range of new interpretations. The connection between memory and identity obtained a renewed force.
