Personalism should be defined as a philosophical school. 

Personalism exists in many different versions, and this makes it difficult to define it as a philosophical school. We feel it necessary to declare it as a specific school of European philosophy. One reason is that Personalism was a widespread movement in such European countries as France, Germany, and Poland. However it is concerned that Personalism is a more diffused and eclectic movement and has no such universal reference point. But Personalism maintains a higher reality and value of the individual - a person; it emphasizes the importance, uniqueness and inviolability of the person, as well as the person's private and social dimension. The other reason is that Personalism has a close connection with other philosophical schools. It should be admitted that because of the emphasis on the subjectivity of the person Personalism is often associated with Phenomenology and Existentialism as a part of these schools but not as unique one. Therefore Personalism a broader worldview and represents more than one school or one doctrine while at the same time the most important forms of Personalism do display such central and essential commonalities as the general affirmation of the centrality of the person for philosophical thought.
