Recognition Culture and the Sense of Responsibility

Recognition Culture and the Sense of Responsibility                              
By: Prof. Dr.Younes Megdadi


There is no doubt that everyone has the right, individuals and institutions, to seek to translate their aspirations, which include ambitions and wishes, which each sees from his point of view as achievable in pursuit to achieve a qualitative leap in the field in which they are engaged for the purpose of self-enhancement and a sense of pride and pride in the achievements that can be achieved. But not everything that an individual wishes can be achieved, and the results may be disappointing, by attributing them to a number of reasons related to circumstances beyond the will, which we always hear by putting these reasons as a hanger to justify failure and evasion of an explicit and public recognition of failure, personal humiliation, loss of reputation and prestige....etc., are among the deeply held beliefs that prevent recognition of failure.


On the other hand, we hear through various media outlets that dealt with the cultures of many societies around the world, including the culture of recognition, which we find rooted in the behavior of its citizens as part of the personality and identity of the individual human being, regardless of the location or job title or prestige. Rather, we find that they have the courage to resign from any location my job, apologizing, publicly acknowledging his shortcomings, and withdrawing from a position of responsibility calmly and the examples are many. In this context, we find that the heavenly religions and behavioral sciences believe that this recognition bears real moral values and does not indicate weakness or insult to the human self as some believe, but rather an intellectual and behavioral advancement to preserve the system of giving and make room for those who deserve it according to the accepted standards to manage the helm of responsibility so that the construction process continues without stopping with minimal losses.


The culture of recognition, including its value connotations, represents an ethical feature and a civilized culture as the only way out to protect what remains instead of eliminating everything and reaching the black mud layer. Our sheikhs, scholars and specialists in behavioral sciences, sociology and the law have emphasized that the culture of recognition is not a crime or a defect as many see it, or that it is appropriate for societies and not suitable for other societies, justified by flimsy excuses. Rather, it is courage governed by a set of moral values, a sense of responsibility, belonging and others instead of the guise of arrogance, cunning, lying and showing off without caring about the consequences of failure and diving into the mud of the black swamps.


If we look closely at the dimensions and goals of the culture of recognition, we will find ourselves in dire need of it, but we wonder how to develop and consolidate it so that it truly becomes an integral part of our intellectual, behavioral and societal culture and in various aspects of our lives instead of remaining in the box of wishful thinking, racing and representation of imaginary roles that do not enrich nor get fat from hunger. How we aspire to be a culture of recognition as one of the cultures immersed in noble behavioral and moral values and a sense of responsibility honestly, based on family education, schools, universities, places of worship, and institutions to bring out an intellectual culture framed by a sense of responsibility and issue and far from personal and subjective interests and gains, in the interest of everyone to properly manage capabilities Individual, institutional and societal, and directing it towards building and social advancement of all sectors and institutions with its components.
