Message on the theme of the world as a whole. The world as a single whole and a single being in its diversity being

The modern world as a whole

The term "society" has several meanings. One of them means humanity as a whole, that is, all people on the planet. Of course, we do not know, and we cannot know all earthlings, especially since the number of inhabitants of the Earth at the beginning of the 21st century has already exceeded 7 billion people. But we are very tightly connected and dependent on each other. And people feel this dependence more and more sharply every year.

Today, we can talk about the existence of a world community. This is the aggregate modern societies which are characterized by close economic, political and cultural ties.

There are many examples of such connections. One of them is ecological. Environmental problems have become global. Air pollution at one end the globe creates problems at the other end. Enterprises of one country emit harmful, dangerous substances into the atmosphere, and on the territory of another state, possibly located quite far, they fall in the form of precipitation that threatens the health, and sometimes the life of all living things. industrial activity developed countries leading to global climate change. Therefore, all the inhabitants of the earth feel mutual dependence and understand that these problems can be solved only by joint efforts.

But in addition to problems, we are united by successes in various areas of life. The discoveries of scientists, the inventions of engineers, thanks to modern means of communication, very quickly become the property of all mankind. Science and technology today go beyond the borders of national states, become international. The discoveries of scientists - theorists of one country are being introduced into life by engineers of other countries. Cars or household appliances are assembled from component parts that were made in different countries. This is how transnational, that is, multinational companies, whose branches are located in different states, appear.

In addition to transnational companies in the modern world, there are many international organizations whose goal is to help people from different countries make their lives safer, more peaceful, free, etc. For example, shortly after the end of World War II, the United Nations (abbreviated UN) was created, uniting many states. The UN considers its main task to be the maintenance of peace throughout the planet, the cessation of military conflicts and their settlement through negotiations. Within the United Nations, there are many associations that deal with individual issues. For example, UNESCO is the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, which has 195 Member States and 8 Associate Members.

There are also international non-governmental organizations, such as the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. It unites over five hundred million people in 181 countries of the world.

Means also play a unifying role in the world mass media. Thanks to television, radio and the Internet, millions of people are witnessing events that take place in different parts of the world. With the help of television and the Internet, we can be at the center of events, feel like participants in them.

All these examples show that today in the world there is a strengthening of international political, cultural, economic, informational, technical and other ties between states at different levels. This process is called globalization. Scientists call the causes of globalization:

The growth of the world's population,

Development of international trade,

Development of means of communication,

Scientific and technical progress.

The consequences of globalization are assessed in different ways. Some believe that this is a natural process and the rapprochement of countries has only positive consequences. Such as the:

a) freedom of movement of people and goods;

b) ease of establishing contacts between people;

c) expanding opportunities to help those in need.

Opponents of globalization believe that as a result of this, countries lose their identity, weak states become dependent on strong ones, diseases spread, and so on.

Globalization opens up great opportunities for educated people, for those who are interested in expanding their knowledge. Achievements of culture, works of art, scientific discoveries become available to many. The level of education is increasing, the general outlook is expanding. This contributes to understanding each other, makes people more tolerant of others. And if so, then the number of conflicts in society should become less and life on planet Earth should be calmer.

Thus, people living at the beginning of the 21st century, every day more and more feel their unity, that is, they represent global community. But it should be remembered that this unity does not cancel the diversity of the world.

Contents The problem of being in materialistic philosophy

• Naturphilosophy of the Renaissance

• Mechanistic materialism of modern times

• Natural-science materialism of the XIX-XX centuries.

• Conclusion

Being as a philosophical category

• The object of philosophical knowledge is the "whole world", i.e. the world as a whole and one being in its diversity

• Being is a philosophical category meaning reality; the totality of all things, the unity of forms and modes of existence

• In the narrow sense of being is an objective world that exists independently of consciousness

• In a broad sense this is everything that exists: not only matter, but also consciousness, ideas, feelings and fantasies of people

Being as a philosophical category Forms of being

• material existence(objective being)

• Ideal Being(objective and subjective)‏

• A virtual reality- both material, and objective-idealistic, and subjective-idealistic being

• World(universe, universe) - a single integral set of various forms and levels of being

Being as a philosophical category Philosophical aspects of the analysis of being

• Structural aspect(identification of different types of being, their relationship and interaction)‏

• Dynamic aspect(consideration of being in time. To be means to be in the temporal sequence of changing one’s states: before-now-then, i.e. change)

• Subject aspect(involves the solution of the question: what is being, what is its essence, i.e. revealing the universal basis of being, i.e. substance)

Being as a philosophical category Substance

• Substance - it is the primary basis and the last essence of all that exists, objective reality, considered from the side of its internal unity

• Substance does not need anything else for its existence

• Substance uncreated, indestructible, it is the cause of itself, the existing forms of being and the cause of all changes in them

• What can be a substance? One thing - material, spiritual, divine

Ancient Greek natural philosophy

• Basic provisions

• Philosophy arose in the sixth century. BC. in the shape of natural philosophy (philosophies of nature)

• A characteristic feature of the pre-Socratic schools is cosmocentrism

• The first philosophers tried to understand how the world works, based on simple observations of natural phenomena.

• At the heart of natural philosophers' reasoning about nature lies notion of a single origin

• Recognizing one principle, materialists have created a peculiar way of viewing the world - monism

Ancient Greek natural philosophy Spontaneous materialism

• The beginning of the world- one or another element. Hence the name - spontaneous materialism

• The elemental fundamental principles of the world (arche):

• Water (Thales - the first philosopher)‏

• Apeiron (Anaximander)‏

• Air (Anaximenes)‏

• Fire (Heraclitus)‏

Ancient Greek natural philosophy General properties and characteristics of fundamental principles

• Eternity(infinity of existence in time, time- the duration of the existence of space objects)

• Immutability and impenetrability

• Ability to move and self-promotion(the ability to change form without changing the content. Therefore, the world is characterized by a circular motion)‏

• The source of the movement and the existence of nature were considered unity and struggle of opposites

• Anthropomorphism

Ancient Greek natural philosophy What is Logos?

• The concept of Logos was introduced by Heraclitus

• Logos(mind, mind) - objective law of the universe, cosmic wisdom

• The essence of the Logos is revealed in three principles:

• The principle of unity and struggle opposites

• The principle of constant variability, the fluidity of things, in other words, the principle of universal development

• The principle of relativity

Ancient Greek natural philosophy Atomism of Democritus

• For the formation of worlds and objects, two beginnings: atoms(being) and emptiness(non-existence) Emptiness is a container of atoms

• Atoms - the first building blocks of the universe(invisible to the eye, but visible to the mind, indivisible, impenetrable, capable of movement, have an internal source of movement (opposing forces of attraction and repulsion), i.e. capable of self-movement)

Ancient Greek natural philosophy What is the value of the teachings of Democritus?

• First of all, Democritus moved from direct observations of the elements of nature to speculative constructions about invisible atoms, i.e. from the specific to the universal

• Secondly, Democritus creates a platform for dualism, recognizing two principles for the formation of the world - atoms and emptiness)‏

Mechanistic materialism What influenced the paradigm shift?

• 17th century industrial revolution

• Fundamental scientific discoveries that changed worldviews

• Development of fundamental sciences (mechanics, astronomy and mathematics)

• Paradigm- this is a set of theoretical and methodological installations, with the help of which the reality is studied

Mechanistic materialism The principle of mechanism

• The principle of mechanism lies in the desire of science and philosophy to reduce all the laws of nature to the laws of mechanics

• Philosophy was perceived as a continuation of mechanics

• The general principle of the structure of the world- the world is like a well-oiled clockwork, in which all parts work smoothly thanks to movement

Mechanistic materialism The main characteristics of being in the philosophy of the XVII-XVIII centuries.

• Being as an extremely broad concept, as a set of all natural objects, as the world as a whole

• Being understood as individual(i.e. the being of separate objects) and unique

• Origin of being- the smallest particles (corpuscles) divisible to infinity

• Identification of the beginning with the substance(matter ≡ substance)‏

• corpuscles endowed with the most important properties - length and movement

Mechanistic materialism The problem of motion and space

• Motion identified with mechanical movement, which has the properties of a line, magnitude and trajectory of movement

• Space also identified with a mathematical quantity. The measurement of extension leads to the idea that there is no emptiness in the world

• Deism- a religious and philosophical view, according to which God, having created the world, does not take part in it and does not interfere in the natural course of its events

Mechanistic materialism Substantial understanding of being

• Substance- the ultimate foundation that allows you to reduce all the diversity and variability of properties to something permanent and independently existing

• Substance has invariable properties - volume and length

• There is no emptiness in the world

• Since the length is unlimited, then the material universe is infinite

Mechanistic materialism Anthropological materialism of L. Feuerbach (late 18th - early 19th centuries)‏

• Man including nature as the basis of man - the only universal and highest subject of philosophy

• Nature is material, bodily, sensual. It is not created, but has always been and is. The cause of nature lies in itself. She preceded man, mind, spirit

• Nature is diverse exists objectively and has its own rules. In nature, it is not the gods that govern, but only natural forces, natural laws. They are reflected in human thinking

• nature has forms of existence which are time and space

Natural science materialism Dialectical materialism

• Founder F.Engels in his work "Dialectics of Nature" he introduced the principle of dialectics into the natural scientific ideas about nature

• Matter understood as a general property of things be, and not as a specific substance or substance

• Matter attributes: time, space, movement are integral to it. Matter changes, its attributes change and vice versa

• Movement is absolute, rest is relative. The transition from one form of movement to another is based on the principle of ascending from the lowest to the highest

Natural science materialism Forms of motion of matter (F. Engels)‏

• Social

• biological

• Chemical

• Physical

• Mechanical

Natural science materialism Three principles of motion

• The doctrine of the forms of movement is based on three principles:

• The principle of the inextricable connection between motion and matter

• The principle of the inseparable connection of motion with other attributes of matter- space and time

• Development principle(from the lowest to the highest; the highest forms of movement historically develop from the lowest; development appears as progress)

Natural-science materialism The scientific revolution of the late XIX - early. twentieth century

• 1895 G. discovery of X-rays. The property of impenetrability, which was considered an absolute property of matter, was refuted

• 1896- discovery of natural radioactivity by A. Becquerel. The property of the indivisibility of matter is also relative

• 1897 G.- the discovery of an electron, the movement of which could not be explained in mechanistic laws (J. Thomson)

• 1898- discovery of the material, wave nature of light (M. and P. Curie, P. Lebedev, M. Plank). The beginning of the elimination of the gap between the two types of matter in inorganic nature - matter and field

• 1905. - creation of the theory of relativity (Einstein)

Natural science materialism Results of the revolution in natural science

• The discoveries have overturned all established ideas about matter as a substance and structure of the world.

• Everything that did not belong to the substance was recognized as the result of the activity of consciousness and belonged to the field of ideal objects (light, taste, smell, sound)

• The discovery of a new form of matter (light) helped to determine the wave nature of these phenomena and radically change the idea of ​​the Universe

Natural-science materialism The essence of the crisis of natural science XIX - early. twentieth century

• The latest revolution in natural science consisted in the destruction of the old mechanistic ideas about matter, its types, properties, structure, forms of motion.

• The situation that has arisen in science has led, on the one hand, to a crisis in science itself and especially in physics, on the other hand, to the emergence of a new variety of idealism - “ physical" idealism»

• The great success of natural science gives rise to the oblivion of matter by theoreticians and mathematicians. " Matter disappears”, only equations remain. So, at a new stage, the old idea is revived: “reason prescribes laws to nature”

Natural science materialism Conclusions from the essence and causes of the crisis

• It is impossible to confuse the philosophical concept of matter with the teachings about the physical structure of matter and its basic properties.

• Any ideas about the structure and properties of matter take into account only that single and special thing that exists in objects and phenomena of the material world.

• The philosophical concept of matter, in principle, cannot become outdated, since matter will not cease to be an objective reality, and physical ideas about it will constantly change, supplement, become obsolete

• It is not matter that disappears, but yesterday's limit of our knowledge of its structure and properties.

Natural science materialism Philosophical concept of matter

• « Matter is a philosophical category for designating objective reality which is given to a person in his sensations, which is copied, photographed, displayed by our sensations, existing independently of them ”(Lenin V.I.)

Conclusion

• The category of being unites on the basis of existence the most diverse phenomena, objects and processes

• In modern philosophy of nature and science, the point of view prevails, according to which matter in all its properties is the basis of the world.

• The main attributes of matter are movement, space and time, interpreted in the spirit of natural science.

Questions for self-examination

Question 1. Has the world always been one? What is he doing modern world as one?

No, the ancient world was not unified. In ancient times, when a few groups of hunters and gatherers lived on Earth, meeting each other once every few years, it was impossible to talk about the unity of the world of people. And in the Middle Ages, the world was fragmented into many principalities at war with each other, which then disintegrated, then united into larger states. Trade links were quite rare, roads, railways, the Internet, uniting today different countries did not exist then. People traveled very little, living all their lives in their city or village.

Due to the presence of a huge number of fast-moving Vehicle now you can get anywhere in the world in a matter of hours. Technical inventions made in one country instantly become the property of all mankind. Airplanes, mobile communications, computers and the Internet are now used by almost every inhabitant of the Earth, although they have authors and a country of invention. Today, all inventions are the subject of international trade.

Question 2. Explain why the Council of Europe was created? Why was it at that time that the question of creating such an organization became acute?

Council of Europe - international organization, promoting cooperation between its members, the countries of Europe, in the field of standards of law, human rights, democratic development, the rule of law and cultural interaction. The aim of the Council of Europe is to bring about a closer alliance among its members to protect and promote the ideals and principles that are their common heritage and to promote their economic and social progress.

At that time, it is necessary to restore the economy and the standard of living of people of various European countries destroyed by the war.

Question 3. What is the world community, globalization? Give examples of globalization.

The world community is the totality of modern societies that exist in the world.

Globalization is a process of worldwide economic, political, cultural and religious integration and unification. Globalization is a process of changing the structure of the world economy, most recently understood as a set of national economies connected to each other by a system of international division of labor, economic and political relations, inclusion in the world market and a close interweaving of economies.

An example of globalization can be the creation of international companies, retail chains and restaurants, banks.

Question 4. What is the meaning of accelerating the development of society?

Its essence lies in the fact that each subsequent historical stage in the development of society takes less time than the previous one. In each subsequent era, more technical inventions and scientific discoveries occur, tools and technology improve faster.

Question 5. How did the population of our planet change over time? When answering, use the data in the table on p. 114.

The Russian scientist Sergey Petrovich Kapitsa established that there is a connection between the acceleration of the development of society and population growth. The closer to our time, the faster the population grows.

In the era of the early Stone Age, only 100 thousand people lived on our planet. After 1.5 million years, the population growth rate was already 10 thousand times greater than at the beginning of the Stone Age, and the population already amounted to 10 million.

Over the 20th century, the number of people has almost quadrupled, and over the next 50 years it will grow by another third. According to experts, by 2050, about 9 billion people will live on Earth.

Question 6. Think about why the population of the Earth is growing at a fast pace today. Why was there no such growth in the ancient world and in the Middle Ages?

Population growth is provided mainly by the countries of Southeast and South Asia, the population in these countries is growing at a rapid pace, because there is a very low level of education and enlightenment, unlike the countries of Europe, North America and Australia, but at the same time the quality of health care is improving, which reduces the rate of deaths among newborns. AT ancient world medicine was at a much lower level.

Question 7. Explain how the population of the Earth affects the unity of the world.

The more people on the planet, the more people communicate with each other, exchange information. This means that the higher the population, the more united our world should be considered.

Workshop

1. Complete the sentences.

The modern world can be considered one, because... technical inventions made in one country instantly become the property of all mankind. Airplanes, mobile communications, computers and the Internet are now used by almost every inhabitant of the Earth, although they have authors and a country of invention. In the historical past, technical innovations were kept a deep secret. For example, in China, for many centuries, they kept the secret of making porcelain. Today, all inventions are the subject of international trade.

2. How do you personally feel the unity of the world in your life? Write 5-6 sentences.

reading news from different corners around the world, communicate with relatives from another country using the Internet, order things in an online store.

3*. Prepare a report on the activities of any international organization. Use materials from newspapers, magazines, the Internet.

The United Nations is an international organization created to maintain and strengthen international peace and security and develop cooperation between states.

The UN Charter was approved at the San Francisco Conference, held from April to June 1945, and signed on June 26, 1945 by representatives of 50 states. On October 15, 1945, Poland also signed the Charter, thus becoming one of the original members of the Organization. The date of entry into force of the Charter (October 24) is celebrated as United Nations Day.

On December 10, 1948, the UN General Assembly adopted and proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Provides humanitarian assistance to countries that have been exposed to natural disasters for a long time or are recovering from conflict.

An important tool for maintaining peace and international security are UN peacekeeping operations. Their activities are determined by a number of resolutions of the General Assembly, adopted in accordance with the Charter of the Organization.

The UN holds conferences and forums where solutions are discussed and developed on many pressing international issues.

The doctrine of Tao - Taoism, was created by the elder contemporary of Confucius Lao Tzu (VI century BC), who is credited with the authorship of the treatise "Tao Te Ching". All Chinese sages were adherents of the doctrine of Tao. This is the basis of the Chinese worldview, ideas about the world and the place of man in it, the embodiment of ancient Chinese wisdom.

The formation of the world in Taoism is described as its birth from the initial chaos. “At a time when heaven and earth had not yet taken shape, everything was hovering and fermenting, flowing and flowing. I'll call it the Great Light. Tao arose in the void and nebula. Emptiness and nebula gave birth to space and time. Space and time gave rise to ether (qi). The ether divided: pure and bright shot up and formed the sky, heavy and muddy condensed and formed the earth. Having united into one particle of jing of heaven and earth, they formed yin and yang. Their concentrated particles formed the four seasons. The scattered particles of the jing of the four seasons formed a darkness of things.” Next comes the formation of fire and sun, water and moon, then stars and constellations. This is one of the options for the origin of being.

The emergence of the world is thus described as the transition of non-existence into existence, formless - into a multitude of forms. But this process never ends, but turns into a constant cycle, movement from non-existence to existence and vice versa, where "beginning and end have no edge", "beginning and end are like a ring." Nothingness is not just the absence of everything. It acts as the Great One, the source of all form and certainty.

What role does the Tao play in the world? Tao acts as a generative principle, "gives birth to the darkness of things", "makes things things". "Tao... one is established and the darkness of things will be born." Tao expresses the activity of being, its dynamics. “Tao covers the sky, supports the earth, deploys the four cardinal directions… communicates with the formless, runs from the source, springs forth. Empty, slowly filling up. Bubbling and bubbling. It will stand between heaven and earth and fill all space. Distributes and does not dry out. There is neither morning nor evening for him. Stretched - covers six sides, folded - does not fill even the palm of your hand. Compressed - able to straighten, dark - able to be light, weak - able to be strong, soft - able to be hard. Thanks to him, the mountains are high, the abysses are deep thanks to him, the animals run thanks to him, the birds fly thanks to him, the sun and moon shine thanks to him, the star dance moves thanks to him.

Tao, therefore, is the source of change, movement, the potency that contains everything in itself, gives rise to the darkness of things.

In Chinese culture, the world is a single whole, a constant transition of non-existence into existence and vice versa, the emergence of forms and disappearance, in which "the darkness of transformations, hundreds of changes flow freely, without lingering on anything." This “free”, “spontaneous” flow, change in the world is not subject to the mind separated from the world. It obeys the Tao. But Tao is not reason, like thought, reflection, word-logos, but the Way, fate, the inner potency inherent in all things and inseparable from them.

Ancient Chinese culture is alien to the opposition of the active intelligent principle and passive matter, the immortal soul and the mortal body, characteristic of European culture, expressed in the teachings of Socrates, Plato, Aristotle.
