LIVING PERSON AS A VALUE AND PROBLEMIN MODERN RUSSIAN PHILOSOPHY

The relevance of the topic of a living person, its problematization in various aspects in philosophy, is due to the immediate existential threat to people’s lives in conditions of sharp civilizational confrontation. The problem of a living person is revealed in the face of a number of “trends” that do not coincide with the trend towards affirming the value of a living person, his natural reproduction and in the relationship of a person with innovative technological products that turn the human world into a hybrid environment and change him. The expansion of modern technology calls into question the prospects, opportunities, place, and status of a person. In modern Russian philosophy, the “death of man“ has not occurred. The understanding of philosophy as anthropology is firmly present in it. It remains a real philosophy of life, a philosophy of man as living and alive. The problem of a living person is discussed in the context of a number of oppositions ("living - inanimate”, "human - non-human^, ^natural -artificial" etc.), intersecting with each other. It relates the aspects of ontic and ontological. A living person is always concrete in his singularity as a being and unique in his individual experience of being. He is a unique event in human existence. For a person, the ability and ability to transform the inanimate into the living, to look for life behind things is fundamentally important. The human in a person is a truly human matter, actual living cultural work, labor (effort) and care for reproducing moments of the living in oneself, cultivating in oneself these cares and efforts, creating a culture of oneself as living. The skill of revitalizing and deobjectifying culture by man is a guarantee against dehumanization. The content of culture works when an "exciting" attitude arises and culture serves life. Modern technologies used to enhance the effect of a living meeting between a person and cultural material in places that are potentially "eventful" for a person, work for the living in a person. They ensure the creation of a cultural space for the affirmation of the living. In contrast to the technical as non-human, we can talk about the "human technical". It is difficult to overestimate the importance of this in the situation of the presence of counter-culture, the "cancel culture" of the living and the promotion of anti-anthropocracy and ideological attitudes.

Abstract

The relevance of the topic of a living person, its problematization in various aspects in philosophy, is due to the immediate existential threat to people’s lives in conditions of sharp civilizational confrontation. The problem of a living person is revealed in the face of a number of “trends” that do not coincide with the trend towards affirming the value of a living person, his natural reproduction and in the relationship of a person with innovative technological products that turn the human world into a hybrid environment and change him. The expansion of modern technology calls into question the prospects, opportunities, place, and status of a person. In modern Russian philosophy, the “death of man“ has not occurred. The understanding of philosophy as anthropology is firmly present in it. It remains a real philosophy of life, a philosophy of man as living and alive. The problem of a living person is discussed in the context of a number of oppositions ("living - inanimate”, "human - non-human^, ^natural -artificial" etc.), intersecting with each other. It relates the aspects of ontic and ontological. A living person is always concrete in his singularity as a being and unique in his individual experience of being. He is a unique event in human existence. For a person, the ability and ability to transform the inanimate into the living, to look for life behind things is fundamentally important. The human in a person is a truly human matter, actual living cultural work, labor (effort) and care for reproducing moments of the living in oneself, cultivating in oneself these cares and efforts, creating a culture of oneself as living. The skill of revitalizing and deobjectifying culture by man is a guarantee against dehumanization. The content of culture works when an "exciting" attitude arises and culture serves life. Modern technologies used to enhance the effect of a living meeting between a person and cultural material in places that are potentially "eventful" for a person, work for the living in a person. They ensure the creation of a cultural space for the affirmation of the living. In contrast to the technical as non-human, we can talk about the "human technical". It is difficult to overestimate the importance of this in the situation of the presence of counter-culture, the "cancel culture" of the living and the promotion of anti-anthropocracy and ideological attitudes.
