N. Bohr, K. Borad and the Crisis of Extreme Objectivism (to the Deconstruction of the Concepts of Nature and Matter)
The article is devoted to rethinking the concepts of nature and matter, considered from the point of view of extreme objectivism, characteristic of classical natural science. The ancient and Christian paradigms of understanding nature are briefly considered, as well as the conditions for the possibility of obtaining objective knowledge in modern times, embodied in the spatial model of understanding. As an alternative to classical rationality, the concept of quantum mechanics by N. Bohr is given, as well as its ontoepistemological interpretation by K. Borad. In the final part, the classical opposition "nature/culture" is deconstructed, as a result of which culture appears as one of the goals of nature. Then if living things need art and technology, then nature itself needs culture. It is concluded that the picture of the nature-culture relationship is incomparably more complicated than it appears to the classical objectifying view. Nature and matter in this perspective acquire the role of an active participant in the formation of the world.
