ZNAČAJ IDEJE PRAVEDNOSTI U ZASNIVANJU EVROPSKOG IDENTITETA/THE IMPORTANCE OF THE IDEA OF JUSTICE IN ESTABLISHING EUROPEAN IDENTITY

Abstract

In this paper, the goal we strive for is reflected in arriving at what the idea of justice in itself represents, establishing its significance for life experienced in the material world, and ultimately recognizing the importance of justice in the form of European identity. In this sense, it is necessary to get closer to the nature of the soul, its role in cognition and arriving at the answer we strive for when we ask the question: What is justice?, but also the question of the body, which inevitably participates in what we can observe according to human nature. This direction illuminates the significance and power of education in discovering and bringing closer what carries justice as a virtue and moving away from the darkness and fog that threatens to weaken, if we look at it from today's perspective, identity. Following, among other things, the Platonic thread in defining upbringing and education, the importance of justice in the 21st century and the way in which justice contributes or serves as a weapon in the construction of a European or transnational identity are presented.
