Czym się zajmujemy
This is a philosophical discussion group. We ask and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives but CRITICALLY in a respectful way. This is done by raising your hand to speak rather than speaking whenever. This forces listening and introspection that we feel is vital and missing from many parts of daily and important communication.
It is not a debating club or a platform to proselytising. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others.
A Socrates Cafe meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning.
The subject of each discussion is nominated and then voted on by the participants at the beginning of each meetup. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just an enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view.
Everyone is welcome... Any gender, age, education, national origin, race, religion, etc. A range of perspectives is appreciated, or in fact desired. If you're shy, just come to listen; you won't be pressured to speak.
Bob Enteen, an experienced, friendly, easy-going American, created this group and now is run by a team of moderators. If you have questions or concerns, just drop us a message.
The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

QUAN ENS TROBEM?
Els divendres de 19:30 a 21:00 (les altres sessions són en anglès i en espanyol).QUANTES PERSONES ENS REUNIM?
Fins a 15 persones. Les reunions començaran a les 19:30. Si us plau, arribeu a temps. Començarem puntualment.QUÈ PASSA A LES REUNIONS?
A cada reunió tenim una discussió utilitzant el mètode socràtic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method. Fem, responem i discutim preguntes i idees per estimular el pensament crític i ampliar les nostres perspectives amb alguns conceptes i pensaments en els quals mai hem pensat. L'objectiu principal d'aquestes trobades és enriquir-nos amb les perspectives dels altres, i no convèncer els altres sobre les nostres perspectives. Les reunions són sobre les nostres pròpies filosofies de la vida i no necessàriament el que els grans filòsofs i acadèmics han dit o escrit. No és un club de debat ni una plataforma per fer proselitisme. En canvi, posem èmfasi en qüestionar, tenir una mentalitat oberta i desafiar les nostres pròpies suposicions mentre escoltem i respectem les opinions compartides per altres persones. Una reunió de Sòcrates Cafè es considera un èxit quan els participants surten de la discussió amb moltes més preguntes de les que tenien al principi.QUINS TEMES ES DISCUTEIXEN A LES REUNIONS?
Els participants suggereixen temes al principi de cada reunió. Després votem i triem el tema més popular per discutir-lo. No és necessària una formació acadèmica en filosofia; només es requereix entusiasme per intercanviar idees i punts de vista. Alguns exemples de temes escollits a reunions anteriors:- Per quins ideals val la pena morir?
- Per què mai estem satisfets?
- Per què els éssers humans estem informats que la societat va malament i els líders també estan ben informats, i no obstant això les coses continuen igual?
- És necessària la identitat?
- Quin és el preu ètic i l'avarícia?
- Què és la postveritat?
- Com és possible que les persones a les societats democràtiques estiguin tan obsessionades pel poder? (Desig de ser diferent, millor, més fort que els altres).
- Què és l'amistat?QUI POT PARTICIPAR EN AQUEST MEETUP?
Qualsevol persona és més que benvinguda a unir-se a les nostres trobades. Aquests events reuneixen persones de diferents orígens i cultures, tot i que no és obligatori tenir formació filosòfica. Els nostres participants habituals són persones que tenen desig d'una comprensió més profunda de si mateixos i del món. Persones que valoren el diàleg profund, honest i respectuós. - [ENGLISH] SATURDAY / PARK / Philosophy Meetup: 17h - 18:30Park De La Ciutadella , Barcelona
