The article traces the ideological history of Eurasianism, highlights the main directions of thought on which it relies. The direct source of the current Eurasianism is classical Eurasianism, which was formed among the Russian emigration in the 1920s–1930s. We should not forget about two intermediate links in this chain of succession: on the one hand, the teachings of Lev N. Gumilyov, on the other hand, the concepts of the Slavophiles. If we look at it from the point of view of the history of Western thought, we will find that the origins of Eurasianism go back to the German romanticism of the late eighteenth century. Between the then German romanticism and modern Russian Eurasian thought, there is a clear ideological connection, a common spiritual orientation, which lies in the consciousness of uniqueness. Possessing the Russian national spirit, which is controlled by the consciousness of uniqueness, Russia, in the understanding of the representatives of this tradition of thought, is an independent and integral civilizational space, different from Europe and Asia, therefore Russia must follow a unique historical path.","PeriodicalId":46795,"journal":{"name":"VOPROSY FILOSOFII","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48409215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article attempts to analyze the symbol of the dragon in the genesis of Chinese philosophy, particularly in its cosmogonic and cosmological systems. The article shows that the mythological symbol of the dragon did not disappear at an early stage of the formation of Chinese civilization; on the contrary, it was fixed in the corpus of categories of philosophical thought and was used to express the cosmological laws and principles of Tao. The symbol of dragon can also be found in 4 symbols (or 4 images 四象, si xiang), 5 elements (五行, wu xing), 6 harmonies-correspondences (六合, liu he), 7 stars (七星, qi xing), 8 trigrams (八卦, ba gua) and 64 hexagrams (六十四卦, liu shi si gua). The article concludes that the symbol of the dragon lays at the very origins of Chinese culture since it expresses its main archetypal meanings; it embodies the naturalness (⾃然, zi ran) and the cycle of universal changes.","PeriodicalId":46795,"journal":{"name":"VOPROSY FILOSOFII","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42013443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Florensky and L. Leonov. Both authors explore a human person in the conditions of a totally ideologized social reality, as a consequence of this reality. But at the same time, both authors also come to the conclusion that the metaphysically and metaphorically meaningful experience of their perception of this human person influences and even literally turns over that meaning image of a human person as a precondition for this reality. The metamorphosis of their contemporary against the backdrop of great historical catastrophes and seemingly historically legitimate dictatorships turns the hero of the historiosophical myth into an anti-hero, and this anti-hero into a new and perhaps the last beginning of the last myth. For both authors, the contemporary is at the same time the source, product and victim of self-hypnosis, which has gained a doctrinal-religious form of ideology. And if Florensky reformats only the national myth, leaving opportunities for positive teleology in negative historiosophy, then Leonov, as it seems, sees its only true version in the negative historiosophy of the international myth.","PeriodicalId":46795,"journal":{"name":"VOPROSY FILOSOFII","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47960177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The close connection of the thoughts and ideas reflected in the work with the pressing problems of the development of modern society is noted. The danger of dehumanization of human society, submission to social standards, blindly following the path of material progress is shown. The author of the article believes that one of the main problems described in the dystopia is connected with a lack of understanding of the true nature of the human personality, the psychological depth of a person, his moral, spiritual basis, ignoring which leads to disastrous consequences. Attention is drawn to the importance of subordinating scientific and technological development to the ideas of human welfare, to critical and skeptical attitude to progressive technocratic social models associated with digitalization, computerization, artificial intelligence. Zinoviev’s novel is seen as a warning to younger contemporaries and future generations, for whom a collision with a complex of problems associated with a new stage of human society development is inevitable.","PeriodicalId":46795,"journal":{"name":"VOPROSY FILOSOFII","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46635528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the past decades, the problem of AI has not lost its relevance due to the rapid development of cognitive sciences, on the one hand, and the human desire to achieve tangible results in a short period, on the other. The work is an analysis of some modern problems in Azerbaijani science and an analysis of how it can be modernized with the help of AI. According to the authors, Azerbaijani science is at the stage of transition from a pre-problem to a problem stage, the essence of which is detailed in the article. Such significant questions are revealed as what is AI and a revolution in the minds of scientists, what prevents science from being modern, how the scientific revolution can affect the reform processes in other areas, etc. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the philosophical analysis of AI in the context of the scientific revolution. The authors strive to show that the scientific revolution is possible only through a significant change in individual consciousness (consciousness of scientists) and the influence of science on the collective consciousness (consciousness of society). At the same time, the scientific revolution should be understood as a problem that can be solved with the help of AI. The authors also propose to introduce the construction of interdisciplinary and inter-academic relations into the scientific community on the basis of a “horizontal dialogue”.","PeriodicalId":46795,"journal":{"name":"VOPROSY FILOSOFII","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42326094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The basis of his views was Confucianism, with the ritual model of religiosity inherent in this doctrine; Kang Youwei also studied several areas of Buddhism from a philosophical point of view. In the treatise The Travelogue of Italy (1904), Kang Youwei offered an analysis of contemporary Catholicism from the standpoint of traditional Chinese literature, considered mainly from a political point of view. The Chinese thinker adhered to axiological relativism, from the position of which he perceived as equivalent any doctrines aimed at the self-improvement of the human person and the entire human society, although he did not approve of ascetic practices. Kang Youwei himself also claimed to be the founder of the dogma, although he was indifferent to ritual, and his system had an expressly philosophical pattern. The Kang’s key concept was Tao, which was revealed to the maximum extent to Buddha and Confucius. Kang Youwei considered the teachings of Mohism, Taoism and early Christianity to be approximately equivalent, and he considered the Catholic Church and the Papacy as a cast from the socio-political system of Ancient Rome, which were particular implementations of the Tao in specific cultures and historical settings. Kang Youwei argued that the most important provisions of the teachings of Pythagoreanism, Judaism and early Christianity were of Indian origin, introduced by Buddhist preachers after the conquests of Alexander the Great.","PeriodicalId":46795,"journal":{"name":"VOPROSY FILOSOFII","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42016017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The author criticizes the extremely broad interpretation of society as a social reality – a substantively independent subsystem of the world around us, isolated from nature and different from it. Society is understood by the author as an institutional form of the existence of social reality – a self-sufficient human collective capable of producing and reproducing all the necessary conditions for the individual and collective existence of people, including their formation as social beings. The author views society as a real social group consisting of interconnected people who carry out joint coordinated activities aimed at realizing common interests and goals. The point of view is criticized, which denies the ontological reality of society, considering it as an “imaginary community” of people, a product of their project consciousness. The author criticizes the approach according to which the interpretation of society as a real group is not applicable to a society divided into classes with multidirectional interests that cause permanent conflicts between their carriers. The author analyzes the phenomenon of self-sufficient existence, which distinguishes society from non-self-sufficient social groups, distinguishes between actual and potential forms of self-sufficiency, examines its real content associated with the production of subjective, material, informational and organizational elements of social life necessary for its maintenance. The article examines the polemics of representatives of “methodological individualism” and “methodological collectivism” associated with the interpretation of society as an integrative subject with its own needs, interests and goals that are absent from the people who form the society.","PeriodicalId":46795,"journal":{"name":"VOPROSY FILOSOFII","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68531961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
