Crisis and Creativity: Selected Examples of Theoretical Approaches
François Jullien returns to the understanding of artistic creativity as a situation of existential crisis. We propose a comparison of the concept of de-coincidence with other notions linking crisis with artistic creativity. In traditional terminology, the notion of crisis was expressed through the category of decisive moment describing an intense change (kairos). The kairotic leap appears to be a term that still aptly describes the situation of cognitive disorientation accompanying creation, the brief loss of personal identity and the complete transfer of attention to the artwork. A more recent approach is the psychological theory of positive disintegration proposed by Kazimierz Dąbrowski in the early 1960s. The article attempts to compare various ways of conceptualizing creativity as a crisis based on selected examples.

Neoliberalismo y el Uso Retórico de la Creatividad
The subjects discussed in the article are the curious use of the term creativity by neoliberalism, how this has had an effect on educational policies in recent years, and how this effect can be counteracted by suggesting an option in a critical educational model. We characterize the concept of creativity applying a multidisciplinary approach with an analytical foundation that diverges with the perceptions coined by the business speech in the latest decades. Because of this disparity, we question the manner in which pedagogy ought to use creativity for the best development of students’ critical capacity, which allows them to criticize the strategies and the objectives of their learning process, as well as willingly animate their subjectivity and foment their critical thought. In relation to the methodology, for all the phases of this documentary research project, we have worked with a bibliographical review of sources which, due to their concrete theme and academic impact, are more relevant for the idea and purposes.
