Study Notes
Intersubjectivity
- Intersubjectivity is a person-to-person relationship, the sharing of experiences between subjects.
- A subject is the topic of discussion or a person capable of reflecting on their existence, their "interiority."
- A subject is distinct from others and has unique experiences. A person's experience of sadness, for example, is personal and distinct from another person's experience of sadness.
- An individual is aware of their own existence and that it is different from the experiences and existence of others.
- It involves the exchange of feelings, perceptions and meaning among people.
What is a Subject?
- A subject is the topic of discussion
- One's personal experiences and interiority form the basis of a subject.
- For example, in a conversation about love, love is the subject.
- A subject can also refer to a person in a classroom setting, such as a student studying Math, English, Science, or Philosophy.
Intersubjectivity as a Relationship
- Intersubjectivity refers to a subject-to-subject or person-to-person relationship.
- The quality and depth of interpersonal relationships vary.
- The relationship between mother and child, for example, differs in quality from a relationship between a person and a classmate.
- This relationship takes into account the experience of the other person.
- We relate to others from the depths of our inner selves (interiority).
- Intersubjectivity moves beyond physical relations, to deal with more profound relations.
Martin Buber's I-Thou and I-It Relationships
- Buber proposed two modes of relating:
- I-It: A relationship based on the object, where a person is treated as a tool or an object rather than a subject. This form of relationship may be utilitarian in nature, often used in daily exchanges or interactions. For instance, an employee and an employer exchanging pay and productivity.
- I-Thou: Relationship based on personal experience and mutual respect between individuals. The focus is on the other person. This mode highlights the importance of considering the other's feelings and perspectives, and maintaining authentic connections. The relationship is reciprocal. For example, between a teacher and a student, a mother and a child, close friends.
- Buber argues that technological advancement and industrialization has dehumanized people to a degree, treating each other like objects rather than subjects
- Dialogue is key for an authentic "I-Thou" relationship. Being present, listening, and understanding are essential aspects of genuine communication.
