Ignatyev V. National Philosophy in the Discourse of Philosophical Paradigms

The author of the given thesis makes an attempt to broaden the classical tradition of nationalism interpretation in the light of ontological, methodological, historical and philosophical range of problems which can be viewed as theoretical basis of nation philosophical discourse formation in social philosophy. National philosophy in the history of social philosophy can be formed as an alternative to classical universalistic projects. National philosophy can be viewed as immediate display of mankind, its "body", that's why, it can be seen as phenomenon of non-linear globalism. The author of the research emphasizes the fact that the modern level of civilization is in the beginning of the science about mankind on the basis of fundamental "ethical infrastructure" in the making of global ethos. And national philosophy is not only understanding of spiritual and historical traditions or, moreover, mediated reflection of a concrete nation, but structurally contradictory part of modern social philosophy. National philosophy is not only rational constructive element of recent modernism, but also narrative of historical and philosophical school of thought. Social and historical experience of two last centuries shows that the nation as unique display of social universality through its peculiarities has become directness of mankind. It was established historically that through interaction of nations the mankind has started to realize its planetary nature and continues these processes in the form of globalization. Taking this into account, we can conclude that not conflicts with nations lead to globalization. On the contrary, globalization processes will be implemented if the nation performs a creative philosophical function.
