Filsafat

Filsafat berasal dari bahasa Yunani yaitu philosophia, yang terdiri dari dua kata yaitu philia atau  philos yang berarti cinta atau persahabatan dan shopia yang berarti kebijaksanaan atau pengetahuan. Jadi secara harfiah Filsafat adalah cinta kebijaksanaan atau kebenaran, sedangkan menurut Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia Filsafat adalah penyelidikan atau pengetahuan dengan akal budi mengenai segala yang ada, sebab asal dan hukumnya.


Kata filsafat dalam bahsa Indonesia dipungut dari bahasa Belanda. Sedangkan orang yang mempelajari ilmu Filsafat disebut Filsuf seperti Plato, Aristoteles, Sorcrates, dll.


Tidak seperti ilmu Fisika atau Matematika dalam ilmu Filsafat tidak mengalami eksperimen atau percobaan tetapi mengutartakan masalh secara persis untuk mencari solusi atau memberikan argumentasi yang tepat untuk solusi tertentu, dan akhir dari semua proses itu dimasukan kedalam proses dialektik. Dialektik bisa dikatakan sebuah dialog. Untuk mempelajari ilmu filsafat diperlukan logika bahasa dan logika berpikir.

Spain Facts Flag

Map

Spain occupies most of the Iberian Peninsula in southwest Europe, and its territory includes the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean and the Canary Islands in the Atlantic. Much of the mainland is high plateau, with mountain ranges, including the Pyrenees, in the north. The plateau experiences hot summers and cold winters—it is cooler and wetter to the north.

About 200 B.C. the Romans occupied this crossroads between Europe and Africa. Moors invaded in A.D. 711, ruling for almost 800 years before Christian armies routed them. Enriched by its New World empire, Spain dominated Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries; today it rules only the North African territories of Ceuta and Melilla.

Gen. Francisco Franco wielded power from 1936 until his death in 1975, when Juan Carlos became king. Three years later a new constitution confirmed Spain as a parliamentary monarchy. After 1986, when the Socialist Party under Felipe González Márquez led Spain into the European Union, the economy grew faster than any other member nation's. Yet the government's pro-business policies in the 1990s were blamed for widening the gap between rich and poor and for the bankruptcy of noncompetitive industries—all contributing to high unemployment. Separatist agitation born of historical regional differences, most pronounced in the Basque country and in Catalonia, still challenges national unity, but a strong national peace movement has developed to counteract terrorist activities.

Unemployment continues to be a problem, but levels have improved from previous points. Spain is one of the European Union nations participating in the euro currency.

ECONOMY

·         Industry: Textiles and apparel, food and beverages, metals and metal manufactures, chemicals

·         Agriculture: Grain, vegetables, olives, wine grapes; beef; fish

·         Exports: Machinery, motor vehicles, foodstuffs, other consumer goods

Dressed in the traditional costume of Spanish bullfighters, a torero stands at the ready.

Crisscrossed over the centuries by Moroccan mercenaries, militant monks, and warring princes, Spain today recalls mostly the legacy of the Romans and the Moors. • Worth remembering is the ease with which Jews, Muslims, and Christians coexisted here for so long. • Picasso's wrenching "Guernica," Dali's unforgettable surrealist obsessions, Gaudí's unfinished Sagrada Familia in Barcelona merely hint of Spain's artistic splendors. • Its cuisine is accounted by many today as superior to that of France. • A timeless culture, endlessly renewing itself.

Bolivia—named for Simon Bolívar, liberator of much of South America—is poor, mountainous, and landlocked. Over 60 percent of Bolivia's people are Indian, mostly Quechua or Aymara; the rest are European and mixed. Many are subsistence farmers on the Altiplano (pronounced ahl-tee-PLAH-noh). Here La Paz, with 1.5 million people, sprawls amid snowy peaks near Lake Titicaca. The waters of Lake Titicaca help warm the air, otherwise La Paz, the world's highest capital city at 3,600 meters (11,800 feet), would not be livable. Bolivia has a second capital at Sucre, named after its first president, where the supreme court resides.

In 1987 Bolivia made the world's first debt-for-nature swap with an international conservation organization for the 135,000-hectare Beni Biosphere Reserve—a portion of Bolivia's foreign debt was purchased to support the reserve. Bolivia continues to conserve its environment with the 1995 creation of the 1,895,750-hectare Madidi National Park. Madidi includes everything from Andean glaciers to rain forests; it helps Indians, like the local Quechua, develop ecotourism, which includes watching some 1,000 bird species, tracking tapirs, or white-water rafting.

Large natural gas deposits in the Santa Cruz area and expansion of soybean cultivation help the economy. But a historic boundary dispute with Chile and cocaine from the Cochabamba area plague the national government.

ECONOMY

·         Industry: Mining, smelting, petroleum, food and beverages

·         Agriculture: Soybeans, coffee, coca, cotton; timber

·         Exports: Soybeans, natural gas, zinc, gold, wood

More than 60 percent of Bolivia's citizens are Indian, predominantly Quechua and Aymara.

"The rooftop of the world," this seductive mountain nation extends from the Altiplano down to the Amazon Basin, exposing visitors to almost every kind of ecosystem, from high mountain fastnesses to deep jungle. • Ridged by the majestic Andes in the west, it claims the world's highest capital, highest international airport, and highest lake, the incomparable Lake Titicaca. • And then there are all those remarkable bowler hats, worn by indigenous Aymara women. • With its centuries of Spanish rule, this is a land of deep tradition, its people staunchly proud of their history.
