Joseph Kozielecki’s Project of Temporal Transgression and the Philosophy of Sustainable Development

In this article the author reconstructs the concept of time as understood by Joseph Kozielecki, which is bound with the philosophy of sustainable development. In conclusion he points to the ambiguity of that concept. The first meaning presupposes the flow of time, which cannot kill a man-perpetrator, as he is able to build, create himself and – at the same time – transcend his own being. In the second meaning, time and the changes in it are the only reality, and the man as if undergoes destruction as a result of these changes.
