From the ‘Russian idea’ to the ‘Russian World’
The article examines the concept of the ‘Russian idea’ and its transformation into a conservative political ideology for the establishing of the so-called ‘Russian world’ in contemporary Russia. The analysis focuses on three levels of conceptual development of this idea: at the level of political technologies—a state level, at the level of university philosophy, and at the level of militarized so-called Z-philosophy. At the state level, the autho…
Introduction to the section on time
the conference on "'Time, Forward!': The Time of Philosophy and Philosophy of Time" was held in Saint Petersburg. The main goal of this conference was to offer a general methodology for cultural analysis of the Russian society in the first third of the twentieth century. As the main category of such an analysis, time was chosen, since the problematising of time served during this period as a leitmotif that penetrated and bound together all parts …
The Culture as System, the System of Culture
In my paper, I first focus on Aleksandr Bogdanov’s systems theoretical understanding of culture and highlight the tektological foundations of culture. In this part, I analyze his organizational account of culture and interpret his tektological approach as a theory of the social dimensions of culture and the cultural dimensions of society. Second, I discuss the term ‘proletarian culture’, its definition and its role in Bogdanov’s theory of sociali…
Rаtionality, conceptual imagination and myth
The article addresses the problem of how myth relates to rationality. In the classical formulation, this question appears in the following manner: are mythos and logos opposites? It can be stated that myth has become one of the key themes of philosophy in the 20th century. It has been studied in ethnography and anthropology, cultural studies, art theory, political science and even in the theory of knowledge. Myth is understood not only as a speci…
Marxism as Spinozism? One episode in the history of Soviet philosophy
This paper seeks to reconstruct philosopher Aleksandr Bogdanov’s approach to the philosophy of Spinoza in the context of the debate against Plekhanov. I demonstrate that the Soviet interest in Spinoza’s theory has never been purely historical, but rather, it served an important function in developing the theoretical foundations for Marxist philosophy. However, Bogdanov was one of only a very few who objected strongly to Plekhanov’s attempt to rel…
Ontology of Time
В статье рассматриваются концепции времени Николая Бердяева и Мартина Хайдеггера – ключевых фигур русского и немецкого экзистенциализма. Цель данной статьи заключается в том, чтобы выявить особенности подходов этих философов к пониманию времени и на их примере указать на общие тенденции в осмыслении времени в философии 20-х гг. прошлого столетия. В работе показывается, что и у Хайдеггера, и у Бердяева время становится предельным онтологическим ос…

Georg Misch’s A History of Autobiography and the problem of self-esteem
The paper focuses on the rediscovery of Misch’s A History of Autobiography and its relevance to the problem of self-knowledge and self-esteem. Misch’s work is used to reconstruct a new aspect of self-esteem and to demonstrate that self-esteem can be interpreted as an early historical form of self-knowledge. In particular, self-esteem is characterized as a kind of self-knowledge in the category of the Other, that is, self-esteem appears to be self…

The Concept of the “New Soviet Man” and Its Short History
The concept of the New Soviet Man remains a topic of on-going scholarly interest for a number of reasons: it reflects a vital part of Russian history, it remains associated with positive and negative connotations that still need to be explored, and it functions as a crossroads for different scholarly perspectives. It remains a topic of interest also because there are still a number of unexplored questions about the concept from the perspective of…
The Notion of Philosophical Knowledge and the Situation of Philosophy Today
In this volume, scholars in the human sciences from different countries examine the meaning of philosophical knowledge today. The answer to the question of what is philosophical knowledge is not self-evident because of different cultural traditions in which national philosophies are situated. Thus philosophical knowledge can be understood as knowledge of history of philosophy, or of philosophical systems, schools and methodologies; or it can be s…
Klopffechtereien - Missverständnisse - Widersprüche?
Eine der schärfsten Debatten des späten 18. Jahrhunderts war die Auseinandersetzung zwischen Immanuel Kant und Georg Forster. Gestritten wurde über die Frage, ob Menschenrassen unterschieden werden können und wie sie zu bestimmen sind. Das hochprekäre Thema wurde in der Folge bis in die Gegenwart hinein zum Streitobjekt der Wissenschaften. Am Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts sollte die Kontroverse sogar die Aufklärung als Ganzes in Frage stellen. German…
