Abstract

Despite humans achieve their civilizations in terms of science, philosophy, and technology, they still behave like animal. This is the main argument of Elias Canetti, a Bulgaria-German philosopher, in his magnum opus, namely Crowds and Power. One of animal symptoms of the humans is social conflicts which usually end up in violence, killing, genocide, and other destructive activities. According to Canetti, it occurs because of human nature, namely human abilities to change and combine themselves as masses which have both destructive and creative power. This article discusses the animal nature of human, their ability to change, their tendency to create masses, and relation between masses and power in human life.Keywords: animal nature of human, mass/crowds, power, social conflict

Abstract

This article argues for the importance of philosophical education for elementary school's students in Indonesia. Philosophy can be understood as value education and also life education. Both are very important for the human's personality development. Therefore, ideally, this kind of education should be provided since childhood age. But, philosophy has different teaching method in compare to other sciences. It asks the children to think for themselves and try to find answers for their questions independently. It should not be a burden for children that already have loads of subjects to learn. The program philosophy for children should also bear in mind the existing cultural context that already exists in Indonesian society.
