Should I write 'nenga-jo'?
As "the conjunction of representations into a conception is not to be found in objects themselves,"(p.78, Immanuel Kant, "Critique of Pure Reason", 2003, Dover Publications, New York) so anyone can cognize things and matters in their own selfish way. "One person connects the notion conveyed in a word with one thing, another with another thing,"(p.81, ibid.) and what one cognizes is "not necessarily and universally valid,"(ibid.) so it is the power that decides which cognition will enjoy hegemony.
The deciding power used to include, in educational societies, bureaucratism power and majority power; the former has been enjoyed by the management, and the latter by the unionists. Independents have had no way but just 'do it yourself.'
