Аспекти інтегральної антропології у філософії Кена Вілбера

Purpose. The study aims to examine the main methodological principles of Ken Wilber’s integral philosophy in the context of integral anthropology as an emerging branch of philosophical anthropology, shaped by the challenges of globalization, providing a rich toolkit for a more comprehensive understanding of human nature, consciousness, culture, and evolution. To achieve this goal, the authors aim to address the following tasks: a) explore the main aspects of integral anthropology within the framework of Ken Wilber’s philosophy; b) review potential areas of application for integral anthropology in the context of K. Wilber’s methodology. Theoretical basis. The authors of this study based their work on philosophical anthropology in both a broad and narrow sense. For them, integral anthropology as a comprehensive field of knowledge focused on the holistic study of human beings, taking into account the biological, social, cultural, psychological and spiritual aspects of their existence, is of primary importance. Originality. The work is the first to investigate the specifics of integral anthropology as a direction relevant to the contemporary era dominated by global challenges. It provides a rich set of tools for a more complete understanding of human nature, consciousness, culture, and human evolution. Using the AQAL methodology, the study explores the possibilities of practical application of the theoretical principles of integral anthropology in areas such as intercultural interaction, education, personal development, ecological anthropology, organizational transformation and leadership, the impact of spiritual practices on individuals, digital anthropology, and healthcare. Conclusions. The holistic approach of integral anthropology, grounded in Ken Wilber’s AQAL methodology, offers a comprehensive perspective on complex systems in science, society, and governance. According to Wilber, the left-hand and right-hand paths to knowledge are complementary approaches to understanding reality. The left-hand path explores the inner world and culture, while the right-hand path examines external phenomena and systems. Integral methodology in anthropology calls for considering both paths to prevent reductionism and achieve the most comprehensive understanding of the human being and their capacity to respond to contemporary global challenges.
