Purpose -This paper aims to deal with the social ontology of ethnos with regard to the problem of "neutralization" of consciousness and the method of intuition.Design/methodology/approach -This paper relies on the observation that the epoch we live in has originated the ontology of ethnos as a "cracked subject" connected with the dissolution of "self".Findings -The results show that the ontology of ethnos by itself as the synthesis of natural, social and universal forces is undergoing the asymmetric synthesis of sensual individuation and the act of thinking. However, thinking as some "fold" of the existence correlates with the extended understanding of subjectivity as the dissolution of the historical consciousness.Originality/value -This paper proposes that the new ontology of ethnos is eventually connected with the "flickering" subject, with the "flickering" of the historical thinking and with the "masks" of the historical subject itself.
The article examines Kant's teaching about space and time (of course, together with Fichte's teaching about the absolute "I") in the context of the formation and development of the spiritual "substance" of self-consciousness. By the latter, the authors understand the social and moral memory of a person, people, or nation. The paper analyzes Kant's teaching about time and space as mediating links connecting the world of phenomena and noumens; it examines the ideas of Kant and Fichte, which is ultimately aimed at identifying the content, heuristic side of the idea of "self-consciousness". The paper examines the relevance of Kant's doctrine of time, which is creatively productive for the analysis of spiritual and socio-cultural processes of the modern era. It is concluded that social and human memory is a certain ability to tie the concepts of "spiritual" and "time" in one knot, which is important for understanding the picture of the modern era.
The article examines the criteria for the relative immortality of man and society. The idea of immortality involves an analysis of relative immortality as the value of the mind itself. The authors proceed from the understanding of immortality as a state of life. After all, a person does not start another life after his death, but continues the previous one. However, man himself is called upon to give up all imaginings about an ideal world, because the ideal is not always associated with a future happier world. The authors come to the conclusion that spiritual immortality is an effective way of spiritual and social self-defense of a person. The criteria of relative immortality, which include:1) the harmony of love for one's neighbor and love for a distant person; 2) the very life of a person in the present; 3) the feeling of love that unites all people;4) the very universality of the feeling of the entire human race.
