Abstract: The aim of the article is to introduce to the Slovak philosophical public one of the important figures of contemporary French philosophy, specialist in Kant, Hegel, German idealism and contemporary hermeneutics combined with dialectical thinking. It is a comparison with H. Jonas in the spirit of A. Stanguennec’s “reflexive dialectic of the self”, taking into account his interpreter G.-D. Ndong Esson. Reflective dialectic, inspired by Kant, Fichte, Hegel and after them Heidegger, Cassirer and others, is the movement of self-reflection through ideas of reason such as the Idea of freedom, practical Idea and cosmological Idea on the one hand and theological Idea on the other. It proceeds regressively towards a renewed “materialist dialectic of nature”, based on the reflexivity of the elementary matter of contemporary atomic and subatomic physics, and progressing towards theology. The comparison rests on two levels: “Ecological humanism in Jonas and reflexive dialectics in Stanguennec” and “Ethics of environmental responsibility from a dialectical and theological point of view and reflexive theology in Stanguennec”. Stanguennec´s reflexive dialectic is an attempt at a practical philosophy, grounding whole philosophy with its disciplines, concepts, distinctions, levels of reasoning, that would be applicable elsewhere

Keywords: Contemporary French philosophy – Post-Marxism – Phenomenology – Ecology – A. Stanguennec – H. Jonas
