Lesson 6: Intersubjectivity

Intersubjectivity is the mutual recognition of individuals as subjects, a unique relationship between distinct subjects.
It's the ability to understand and share thoughts, feelings, and experiences of others.
Intersubjectivity is essential for communication, cooperation, and social interaction.

Defining Interactions

Empathy: Enables us to experience another person's emotions (e.g., happiness, anger, sadness). Empathy is "feeling with" and is contrasted with sympathy which is "feeling in".
Availability: The willingness of a person to be present and be at the disposal of another.
Ethics for Care: An ethical theory emphasizing the moral dimension of relationships and interactions. This perspective encourages individuals to help others, especially the vulnerable.

Awareness of "Self in the Other"

Seeming: Actions where an individual presents himself/herself in a certain way when dealing with others. Individuals take on roles or act out characters in specific situations or with certain people.
Dialogue: A person's words, expressions, and body language become the means by which he/she expresses a part of themselves to another.
