Existential themes in Piaget's genetic epistemology

Gary Kose

pp. 403-409

This paper argues that Piaget presents a theory that is distinct from the extreme idealism of Hegel, and that within Genetic Epistemology there are several existential themes. In particular, two such themes are discussed. The first concerns the relationship between an individual's action and objective conceptual systems. The second, concerns freedom and choice as reflected in Piaget's work on possibility and necessity in development.
