Abstract: the postmodern phenomenon of moral indifference toward other persons is examined considering husserlian fact-value relation identified in his phenomenological studies. If moral invisibility is product of specific historical processes, started with galileian mathematization and with the related objectivism, is ever possible, thanking to a rigorous philosophical research, rediscover the fundamental relation between empiric characterization and its axiological meaning. Overturning scientist conception of «universal» and rediscovering this element as originally embedded in life world, is possible reconsider the «Other» experience as a totality axiologically qualified. Adiaforization is recognized as an inauthentic human phenomenon that is possible to respond through the evidence of an experience phenomenologically investigated.

Abstract: starting from an analysis of the main theories and some of the most significant empirical research on sport, this article critically discusses the contrast between the «drive discharge» and «culture pattern» models, regarding the role and impact that sport covers in society. With the support of an interdisciplinary analysis and a micro-sociological, evolutionary and ethological approach, the author concludes by supporting validity of the drive discharge model, for which the institutionalization of sport and sports fandom would be part of the civilization process described by Norbert Elias.
