This paper posits an opinion that the state of philosophy in comtemporary world including in academic milieu is quiet unsatisfying in terms of how it is formulated and perceived. Though only lightly touched here and there, similar situation happens in Indonesia. Philosophy has been notoriously accused of corrupting young generations, of continously irritating establishments, or at best leaves the world unchanged. Con-sidering that even music, for example, which satisfies only a few human sence, could have such enormous effect to human life, philosophy which claims to cover all traces of human existence could basically do something much much more, rather than simply uninfluencial or harming humanity. By elucidating initial and a little further meaning of philosophy, this paper try to build a foundation for such claim. In between such elucidation, it is briefly mentioned certain reasons why philosophy has been, is and will exist as long as human being exist. All in all, however, this article is only a beginning or at least the first part to explain the existensial nature of philosophy. A further article is needed to expound that.

ABSTRACT
Pendidikan tidak dapat terlepas dari kepentingan politik dan kekuasaan. Paulo Freire melihat pendidikan dalam dua wajah yang berlawanan. Pertama, pendidikan sebagai bentuk penindasan. Kedua, pendidikan sebagai bentuk pembebasan. Pendidikan yang menindas terjadi lantaran peserta didik diarahkan hanya untuk memiliki kesadaran naif. Kesadaran naif pada peserta didik mempermudah mekanisme hegemoni. Sedangkan pendidikan yang membebaskan mengarahkan peserta didik untuk memiliki kesadaran kritis. Kesadaran kritis pada peserta didik mampu memicu terjadinya kontra hegemoni. Kesadaran naif pada peserta didik terjadi melalui suatu sistem pendidikan gaya-bank dengan prinsip antidialog. Sedangkan kesadaran kritis pada peserta didik tumbuh melalui suatu sistem pendidikan hadap-masalah dengan prinsip dialog. Dialog menekankan relasi pendidik-peserta didik sebagai subjek yang setara. Sedangkan antidialog menekankan relasi pendidik-peserta didik sebagai subjek-objek. Paulo Freire percaya bahwa humanisasi adalah permasalahan sentral bagi manusia. Sebuah rezim berkuasa yang hendak mempertahankan kekuasaannya melakukan dehumanisasi pada masyarakat melalui mekanisme hegemoni. Filsafat pendidikan yang dikonsepkan oleh Paulo Freire merupakan upaya humanisasi. Humanisasi dalam pendidikan ditandai dengan relasi yang setara antara pendidik-peserta didik sebagai subjek. Sehingga, pendidikan hadap-masalah merupakan pendidikan yang membebaskan serta mendukung proses humanisasi dan kontra hegemoni.

ABSTRACT
Education can not be separated from political interests and power. Paulo Freire sees education in two opposite faces. First, education as a form of oppression. Second, education as a form of liberation. The oppressive education occurs because learners are directed only to have a naive consciousness. Naive consciousness in learners facilitates hegemony mechanism. While liberating education leads learners to have critical consciousness. Critical consciousness in learners can trigger the occurrence of counter hegemony. Naive conscousness of the learners occurs through a banking concept of education with the principle of antidialogue. While critical awareness in learners grows through a problem-posing education with the principle of dialogue. Dialogue emphasizes the relation of educator-learners as an equivalent subject. While antidialog emphasizes the relationship of educators-learners as subject-objects. Paulo Freire believes that humanization is a central issue for humans. A ruling regime that wants to defend its power to dehumanize the society through the mechanism of hegemony. The philosophy of education conceptualized by Paulo Freire is a humanization effort. Humanization in education is characterized by an equal relationship between educators and learners. Thus, problem-posing educiation is education that liberates and supports the process of humanization and counter hegemony.

The present collection focuses on the Kyoto School in three unique ways. First, it concentrates on the School’s distinctive account of human becoming. Second, it examines the way that, in the work of its principal exponents, diverse traditions of thought in philosophy and education are encountered and fused. Third, and with a broader canvas, it considers why the rich implications of the Kyoto School for for philosophy and education have not been more widely appreciated, and it seeks to remedy this. The first part of the book introduces the historical and philosophical background of the Kyoto School, illustrating its importance especially for aesthetic education, while the second part looks beyond this to explore the convergence of relevant streams of philosophy, East and West, ranging from the Noh play and Buddhist practices to American transcendentalism and post-structuralism.
