Story
今の社会は、年金制度ひとつを取ってみても、若者が虐げられ、老人を優遇している面があるのではないでしょうか。社会全体の活力を増すためにも、子育て支援を拡充するなど、もう少し若い世代に再分配すべきだと思うのですが。 少し前、NHKのテレビで「ニッポンのジレンマ」という番組をやっていました。30~40代の若手知識人を集めた円卓会議のようなもので、格差の問題、そしてご質問にもある「世代間対立」のことが論じられていました。最初は面白く見ていたのですが、途中でなんだかうんざりして消してしまいました。 その少しあとに、友人の平川克美君とその話題になりました。平川君もこの番組を見ていて、僕と同じように、途中でうんざりして消してしまったそうです。何でうんざりしちゃったんだろうね、というところから話が始まりました。 「金の話しかしてないからじゃないかな」というのが二人の合意点でした。格差の問題、年金の問題は、今、「世代間における社会的資源の分配の不公平」という枠組みで論じられています。(本文より) 内田樹&平川克美「大人の条件」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/uchida.html

ひとつ目の問いはこうでした。 「責任を取るということは可能でしょうか」 僕の答えはシンプルです。 「不可能です」 以上、おしまい。シンプルですよね。 でも、どうして責任を取るということが不可能なのか、 その理路を語るためには、 ずいぶん長いお話に付き合ってもらわなければなりません。 トイレに行きたい人は今のうちに、 コーヒーなんか飲みながらのほうがいいなと 思う人は今のうちにお支度をどうぞ。 さて、用意はよろしいですか。では、話を始めます。 ――(本文より)

昨今、ブラック企業の問題が取り上げられるようになりましたが、その一方で大企業であれば安心、というほど話は単純ではないように感じます。多くの人が会社組織に所属する現代において、私たちはどのような会社、あるいは組織を選ぶべきでしょうか。 「会社」というもののあり方はもうこの50年ですっかり様変わりしてしまいました。1960年頃のサラリーマン映画(森繁久彌の『社長漫遊記』シリーズとかクレージーキャッツの『無責任』シリーズとか)の登場人物たちが「会社」というときのニュアンスはもう現代のサラリーマンにはほとんど共感不能でしょう。(本文より) 内田樹&平川克美「大人の条件」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/uchida.html

Story
「働くことが生きがい」という人もいれば、「仕事は生活していくための手段」であって、できることなら遊んで暮らしたい、という人もいます。人間にとって「働く」とはどういうことでしょうか。 「働くとはどういうことか?」 大切な主題なので、じっくり論じることにします。 働くこととは何か。それを定義してみましょう。 「それが何であるか」を実定的に定義するよりは、「それが何でないか」を詰めていったほうが話が早いということがよくあります。今回もその手を使ってみましょう。 「働くこと」、「労働」の対立概念は何でしょうか。それは「何でない」のか? 「怠けること」でしょうか? なるほど、そういう二項対立もありそうです。 労働と無為。 でも、ほんとうにそうでしょうか。 よく考えてください。「無為」の対立概念は「有為」です。(本文より) 内田樹&平川克美「大人の条件」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/uchida.html

Story
今の若者は「やるべきこと」「やりたいこと」に関心を持つけれど、自分が「やれること」にはあまり関心を持ちたがらないようです。しかし、これからの世の中で生き残るために必要なことは、「自分は何をやれるのか」を知ることではないでしょうか。 この問いの中で私がいちばん興味を惹かれたのは、今の若者は「やるべきこと」「やりたいこと」には関心があるが、「やれること」には関心がない、という対比における助動詞の使い方でした。 これはなかなかいいところを衝(つ)いています。 英語で書いたらshouldとwould like toとcanですね。「ねばならぬ」「したい」と「できる」の対比です。ちょっと古めかしい文法用語で言うと、「当為(とう い)」「願望」と「可能」です。 ざっくり言い切ってしまうと、次のようなことになります。 動詞に「当為」と「願望」の助動詞をつけて話すのが「子ども」で、動詞に「可能」の助動詞をつけて話すのが「大人」である。(本文より) 内田樹&平川克美「大人の条件」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/uchida.html

Story
フェアネス(公平・公正)とは何でしょうか。中央と地方、老人と若者、富裕層と貧困層。今の日本ではさまざまなところで不公平感が高まっています。しかしそもそも社会がどうなれば「公平・公正である」と言えるのか? と考えると、一筋縄ではいかないように感じます。 ちょっと武者震いするようなよい質問であります。 フェアネスとは何か。 たしかに僕はこれまでこの言葉を頻繁(ひん ぱん)に使ってきていながら、その定義を「自明」のことだと思って、改めて吟味したことがありませんでした。ご質問をいただいたことを奇貨として、この語の意味について考えてみたいと思います。 ある語の定義をするときのやり方は記号論的には定型があります。「それが何でないか」から詰めてゆくのです。 フェア(fair)の反対語は何でしょう。よく使われるのはunfairです。でも、これは「フェアじゃない」ですから、何も言っていないのと同じ。 僕の見るところ、一番印象的な反対語はfoulです。(本文より) 内田樹&平川克美のメルマガ「大人の条件」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/uchida.html

「死について考える」というのはたいへんに難しいことです。 わりと簡単に「死」を口にする人がいますけれど、どこまで本気でそう言っているのか、僕にはよくわかりません。なにしろ生きている人間は誰も死んだことがないんですから。「臨死体験をしたことがある」という人がたまにいますけれど、それだって「死にかけた」のであって、ほんとうに「死んだ」わけじゃありません。 大学生の頃に、「私、一度自殺したことがあるの」という女の人に出会ったことがありました。じゃあ、今ここにいるあんたは幽霊か。こういうときの言葉の使い方はもうすこし厳密にして欲しいものですね。 僕はもちろん死んだことがありませんし、「死を経験した」という人に会ったこともありません。他のことなら、自分が経験しなくても、信じられないような経験をした人の話を聴く機会がどこかでありますが、死についてだけはそれがない。(本文より) 内田樹&平川克美「大人の条件」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/uchida.html

Story
小さな子どもを持つ親の多くは、サンタクロースを演じます。子どもには気づかれないように、しかし子どもが欲しがるプレゼントを枕元に置くサンタクロースというのは、ある意味で「贈与」の理想のように感じます。 サンタクロースの存在をいつまで信じていたのかという問いの答えは人によってさまざまで、僕が訊いた中では「20歳すぎまで信じていた」という人もいましたし、「小学校低学年でわかった」という人もいました。 ただ、共通するのは、あるクリスマスの日に一挙にわかったのではなく、何年かかけてしだいにわかってきたということです。 実際にお父さんが枕元でごそごそやっているのを子どもは視認することもよくあるわけですけれど、そういう場合には、「お父さんは夢遊病状態にあり、サンタさんが憑依(ひょ うい)して、その贈与行為を代行しているのである」という説明を子どもたち自身が(しばしば自主的に)採用して、その事態を合理化しているようです。 子どもを持つ何人かからの聞き取りではおおむねそうでした。(本文より) 内田樹&平川克美「大人の条件」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/uchida.html

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Trauma nurse Aly Cappellucci doesn’t need any more kinks. She likes the one she’s landed on just fine. To her, nothing could top the masked men she follows online. Unless one of those men was shirtless, heavily tattooed, and waiting for her in her bedroom. She dreams about being hunted by one in particular, of him chasing her down and doing deliciously dark things to her willing body.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.
