Any philosophy is a worldview, that is, a set of the most general views on the world and the place of man in it.

Philosophy is the theoretical basis of the worldview:

- philosophy is the highest level and type of worldview, it is a system-rational and theoretically formulated worldview;

Philosophy is a form of social and individual consciousness, which has a greater degree of scientificity than just a worldview;

Philosophy is a system of fundamental ideas as part of a social worldview. Worldview is a generalized system of views of a person and society on the world and one's own place in it, a person's understanding and assessment of the meaning of his life, the fate of mankind, as well as a set of generalized philosophical, scientific, legal, social, moral, religious, aesthetic values, beliefs, beliefs and ideals of people.

A vision can be:

- idealistic;

- materialistic.

Materialism is a philosophical view that recognizes matter as the basis of being. According to materialism, the world is a moving matter, and the spiritual principle is a property of the brain (highly organized matter).

Idealism is a philosophical view that believes that true being belongs to the spiritual principle (mind, will), and not to matter.

The worldview exists in the form of a system of value orientations, beliefs and convictions, ideals, as well as a way of life of a person and society.

Value orientations are a system of spiritual and wealth, which society recognizes as the dominant force over itself, determining the actions, thoughts and relationships of people.

Everything has significance, meaning, positive or negative value. Values ​​are unequal, they are evaluated from different points of view: emotional; religious; moral; aesthetic; scientific; philosophical; pragmatic.

Our soul has a unique ability to determine precisely its value orientations. This is also manifested at the level of worldview positions, where we are talking about attitudes towards religion, art, and choice. moral orientations and philosophical passions.

Faith is one of the main pillars of the spiritual world of man and mankind. Every person, regardless of their statements, has faith. Faith is a phenomenon of consciousness, which has a tremendous power of vital significance: it is impossible to live without faith. An act of faith is an unconscious feeling, an inner feeling, to some extent characteristic of every person.

Ideals are an important part of the worldview. Man always strives for the ideal.

Ideal is a dream

- about a perfect society in which everything is fair;

- a harmoniously developed personality;

- reasonable interpersonal relationships;

- moral;

- beautiful;

- Realization of their potential for the benefit of mankind.

Beliefs are a clearly defined system of views that have settled in our soul, but not only in the sphere of consciousness, but also in the subconscious, in the sphere of intuition, densely colored by our feelings.

Beliefs are:

- the spiritual core of the personality;

- the basis of the worldview.

These are the components of the worldview, and its theoretical core is the system of philosophical knowledge.

Worldview activity arises simultaneously with the human

society, the social form of moving matter. As a first approximation to

worldview can be attributed to any judgment (reflection), bearing

any integrally generalized information about an object or a class of objects. IN

in a stricter sense, worldview should be understood with respect to

harmonious system general principles interpretations of nature, society and

human thinking. From this point of view, worldview refers to

first of all, such historical types as myth, religion and philosophy.

The essence of the worldview lies in the integrative orientation, which

is not only a theoretical but also a practical task.

Worldview activity has as its main goal the ideological

(ideological and socio-psychological) association of people.

The main difference between philosophy and other forms of worldview is that it relates, first of all, to the scientific sphere of social consciousness, strives for a rational and conceptual understanding of the world, has a specific categorical apparatus, relies in its logical constructions and conclusions on the science of its time, on the entire a single cumulative experience of human development.

Main directions or industries philosophical knowledge: ontology and theory of knowledge; social philosophy; philosophical anthropology; philosophy of politics and law; philosophy of culture, aesthetics, ethics, logic; philosophy of science and technology; history of philosophy, etc.

Naturally, philosophy has always been interested in the problem of management.

In terms of its content, philosophy performs two main functions in relation to the theory and practice of ensuring national security - ideological and methodological.

The subject (or carrier) of a worldview is individual person, social or professional groups, ethno-national and religious communities, classes, society as a whole. The worldview of an individual is formed under the influence of society and those social communities in which he is a member. At the same time, it is always distinguished by personal originality; the specific life experience of a given individual finds its expression in it.

2. The main question of philosophy from the point of view of materialism and idealism.

Philosophy is a system of fundamental ideas as part of the worldview of a person and society. This is a form of social and individual consciousness, which is constantly theoretically substantiated, has a greater degree of scientific character.

In the worldview there are always two opposite angles of view: the direction of consciousness "outside" - the formation of a picture of the world, the universe, and, on the other hand, its appeal "inside" - to the person himself, the desire to know his essence, place, destination in the natural and social the world. (i.e. the main nodes are the world and man)

Various relationships these angles of view permeate all philosophy.

This big multifaceted problem "the world-man", in fact, acts as a universal one and can act as a general formula, an abstract expression of almost any philosophical problem.

That is why it can, in a certain sense, be called the fundamental question of philosophy.

The question of the relationship between consciousness and being, spirit and nature is fundamental question of philosophy. From the solution of this issue, ultimately, depends the interpretation of all other problems that determine the philosophical outlook on nature, society, and, therefore, on man himself.

Materialism - the course of philosophy, where matter is taken as primary, and consciousness, which is derived from matter, is taken as secondary.

It proceeds from the fact that the world is material, exists objectively outside and independently of consciousness. Matter is primary, not created by anyone, exists forever. Consciousness, thinking is a property of matter.

It is believed that the world and its laws are knowable.

Materialism seeks a realistic explanation of the world from itself without extraneous additions.

Idealism - the basis of understanding the world is the spiritual principle. Consciousness is taken as primary. As a rule, it denies the possibility of knowing the world.

Idealism is divided into two forms: subjective and objective.

Subjective idealism - such a form where the consciousness of the subject (individual human consciousness) - idea. Denies the existence of any reality outside the consciousness of the subject, or considers it as something completely determined by his activity.

Objective idealism considers human consciousness, the mind, to be the fundamental principle of existence. It affirms the existence of a spiritual principle outside and independently of human consciousness.

Materialism is the opposite of idealism. Their struggle is the content of the true philosophical process.

Introduction
Man has always sought to form a generalized idea of ​​the world as a whole and of his place in it. It is ideological views that give a person a guiding thread in his spiritual and practical activities, form his value orientations.
Worldview - a system of generalized views on the world and a person's place in it, on the attitude of people to the reality around them and to themselves, as well as their beliefs, ideals, principles of knowledge and activity due to these views.
The bearer of the worldview is a person and a social group that perceive reality through the prism of a certain system of views.
Depending on what views prevail in one or another set of ideas about the world as a whole, and also depending on the way the corresponding views and ideas are included in the structure of the worldview and the way they are justified, we can talk about different types of worldview. In different societies, in different classes, different types of worldview dominate, which differ in their peculiar interpretation of the phenomena of the external world and of the person himself.
There are the following historical types worldviews: mythological, religious and philosophical. Historically, the first was the mythological view of the world.

1. Mythological worldview
The mythological worldview is formed in the early stages of the development of society and represents the first attempt by a person to explain the origin and structure of the world.
The mythological worldview was the oldest form of knowledge of the world, space, society and man. The myth necessarily arose from the need of the individual, his family, clan and society as a whole, in the awareness of the surrounding natural and social elements, the essence of man and the transfer of their unity through various symbolic systems. In mythological systems, a person and society, as a rule, do not distinguish themselves from the surrounding world. Space, nature, society and man are different manifestations of the same divine law, transmitted through a symbolic or symbolic-mythological system. Nature, society and man are merged into a single whole, inseparable and unified, but they themselves are heterogeneous inside and already authoritarian, the authoritarianism of society has been transferred to all nature.
Mythological consciousness thinks in symbols: each image, god, cultural hero, character denotes the phenomenon or concept behind it. This is possible because in the mythological worldview there is a constant and inextricable connection between "similar" phenomena and objects in society, personality, nature and space.
The most important aspect traditional culture and the mythological worldview is also the fact that myths initially live in their own, special time - the time of the “original principle”, to which linear ideas about the flow of time are inapplicable. Such an attitude towards time can be clearly seen in folk tales, in particular Russian tales, where the time of action is defined as “a long time ago”, “in ancient times”, etc.
In addition, myth, especially in the initial stages of its development, thinks in images, lives with emotions, and the arguments of modern formal logic are alien to it. At the same time, he explains the world based on daily practice. This paradox can be explained by the fact that the society, where the mythological worldview prevails, directly correlates the features of its perception of the world with the real world, individual mental processes with natural and social phenomena, often without making a distinction between cause and effect, and often changing their places.
According to the traditional mythological worldview, its follower is able to rise to the level of a god, which means that for a person, clan and society, the myth of the wanderings and exploits of a cultural hero, in most cases, read “god”, was practically useful and was a guide to action.
Characteristics of mythological consciousness:
1. Syncretism (fusion, indivisibility). In any myth, objective knowledge about the world, the beginnings of religious beliefs, and art coexist;
2. Insensitivity to contradictions. The basis of the myth is human fantasy;
3. There are no causal relationships between objects and phenomena.
In the mythological consciousness there are:
a) metamorphosis (transformation, transformation of something)
b) associations (breath - soul, sleep - death)
c) teleological (the connection is not from cause to effect, but from goal to cause)
d) symbolism (operating not with concepts, but with specific symbols)
e) collectivity (a myth is always a product of collective consciousness)
f) authoritarianism (myths leave no room for personal manifestation of the individual and do not allow criticism of their provisions).
The mythological worldview is characterized by the following features:
- emotional-figurative form (manifested in the transfer of images of heroes, gods, spirits);
- humanization of nature (transfer of human features to the surrounding world, personification and animation of the cosmos, natural forces. Mythology is characterized by non-rigid distinctions between the world, nature and man, thoughts and emotions, artistic images and scientific knowledge);
- lack of reflection (reflection is the work of consciousness, a person's thoughts on his own consciousness);
- utilitarian orientation (manifested in the fact that the worldview problems being solved are closely related to practical tasks: for good luck, a happy life, protection from hunger, disease, need, and so on).
For modern consciousness, the mythological form of worldview is the earliest and most archaic.
Mythology dominated the public consciousness of primitive society and was focused on overcoming the fundamental antipolies of human existence, on harmonizing the individual, society and nature. The inability of a person to separate himself from the environment and the indivisibility of mythological thinking served as a prerequisite for mythological "logic". The result was a metaphorical comparison of natural and cultural objects, the humanization of the natural environment, and the animation of fragments of the cosmos.
Mythological thinking is characterized by a distinct separation of subject and object, object and sign, thing and word, creature and its name, spatial and temporal relations, origin and essence, indifference to contradiction, and so on. Objects approached each other in terms of secondary sensory qualities, contiguity in space and time, and acted as signs of other objects. The scientific principle of explanation was replaced in mythology by total geneticism and etiologism, that is, the explanation of things and the world as a whole was reduced to a story about origin and creation.
Mythology is characterized by a sharp distinction between early, current and subsequent time. Everything that happens in mythical time acquires the meaning of a paradigm and a precedent, that is, a model for reproduction. Modeling turns out to be a specific function of myth. Mythology operates on the concrete and personal, used as a sign.
The content of the myth seemed real to the primitive consciousness in the highest sense, as it embodied the collective "reliable" experience of understanding the reality of many generations. The experience of comprehending reality served as a subject of faith, not criticism. Myths affirmed the system of values ​​accepted in a given society, supported and sanctioned certain norms of behavior.
The mythological attitude was expressed not only in narratives, but also in actions (ceremonies, dances). Myth and ritual in ancient cultures constituted a certain unity: ideological, functional and structural, representing two aspects of primitive culture: verbal and effective.
The first myths of mankind arose in ancient times and were a story about the origin and fate of the world. Hegel wrote that the creation of myths is a manifestation of the impotence of the mind before the world. In those days, mankind in the form of myths, legends, legends tried to answer such global questions as: the origin and structure of the universe as a whole, the emergence of the most important natural phenomena, the emergence of animals and people. A significant part of the mythology was cosmological myths dedicated to the structure of nature. However, great attention in myths, it was given to various stages of people's lives, the secrets of birth and death, all kinds of trials that lay in wait for a person on his life path. A special place is occupied by myths about the achievements of people: making fire, the invention of crafts, the development of agriculture, the domestication of wild animals.
Myth usually combines two aspects: diachronic (a story about the past) and synchronic (an explanation of the present and future). Thus, with the help of myth, the past was connected with the future, and this ensured the spiritual connection of generations. The content of the myth seemed to the primitive man to be extremely real, deserving of absolute trust.
Mythology played a huge role in the lives of people in the early stages of their development. Myths affirmed the system of values ​​accepted in a given society, supported and sanctioned certain norms of behavior. And in this sense they were important stabilizers of social life. The stabilizing role of mythology does not end there. The main significance of myths is that they established harmony between the world and man, nature and society, society and the individual, and thus ensured the inner harmony of human life. A special place in myths belongs to the problem of human cultural achievements.
The mythological worldview ensured the socialization of man, contributed to the transition from the biological population to the human community, formed society and prepared the conditions for its further development.

2. Religious worldview
Close to the mythological, although different from it, was the religious worldview, which developed from the depths of the not yet dissected, not differentiated social consciousness.
Like mythology, religion appeals to fantasy and feelings (these can be very high feelings - love, faith, hope, reverence for life, being, the universe).
However, unlike myth, religion "does not mix" the earthly and the sacred, but in the deepest and irreversible way separates them into two opposite poles. A psychological attitude comes to the fore - faith in God, in the ability of a person to live a pious life, achieve genuine moral (divine) values ​​and ensure immortality.
The main orientation at the religious-mythological stage of being was following the age-old traditions, once and for all established rules: subordination of the younger to the older; individual - genus; weak - strong; ordinary member of the group - authority, leader. Man's efforts were aimed at "not breaking out of the pack", "to be like everyone else." The first naive religious notions were the best way to illuminate this established order for centuries.
But life did not stand still, and further historical development is characterized by the maturation of individual consciousness, the formation of man as a self, as a personality. This process was accompanied by colossal changes in all spheres of life and, above all, in the spiritual and social life. Disharmony was growing both in the inner world of man and between the world and man: the forces of nature remained unknown, social realities became more complicated - slavery, oppression, stratification within groups, enmity between tribes, etc. And the man began to ask questions: To whom and what to obey? To whom do you entrust your life? Are there powers that are superior to human ones, and how should we treat them? - a man was looking for harmony with the world, he needed new guidelines and additional forces to streamline life. Monotheistic religions have become such an additional force, with a new, single, omnipotent and wise God.
The early forms of religious consciousness were characterized by polytheism (polytheism, paganism, idolatry). Each god (spirit, idol, etc.) in such a system is responsible for something of his own, they differ from each other in a number of characteristics, and their relationship with each other often resembles relationships in human society (for example, pagan gods often enter into battles with each other, weave intrigues, etc.). Religions that believe that there is only one God are called monotheistic.
Unlike mythological polytheism, monotheism (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) already places a person in relation to the world, to God, as to separated from it, transcendental (transcended beyond sensory understanding) realities of being - being not earthly, but higher, heavenly , establishing the entire world hierarchy and harmony, in which man occupied a subordinate, secondary place after God. God and man in monotheism begin to oppose each other as different spheres of being. And these spheres are evaluated in different ways: the highest - the lowest, bliss - suffering, true heavenly - untrue earthly, grace - sinful. This dualism of being really expressed the disharmony of man with the reality around him. This idea put a person in front of a dilemma: how to bridge this gap? As a result, a new worldview is being formed - a system of dogmas (unshakable establishments) united within each religion, headed by the Absolute - God. A system of life prescriptions is being formed, given as a revelation of God to the chosen ones, the prophets. In Judaism, this is Moses, in Christianity, Jesus Christ and the apostles, in Islam, Mohammed. The system of dogmas is already ready and immutable; it does not require a person to doubt its correctness and does not require the development of one's own ideas about values. Only one thing is expected from a person here - unconditional faith both in the prescriptions themselves (dogmas and commandments), and in the one on whose behalf they are broadcast to the world, to people.
The main function of the religious worldview is psychological and pacifying. French educator and philosopher of the 18th century. Voltaire wrote that if there were no religion, it would have to be specially created, since, first of all, religion teaches a person patience, modesty, humility and hope.
Religious faith is called upon to give the believer life stability, directs to those establishments that a person cannot help but like: respect for traditions, confidence in the fight against life's hardships, courage in the face of death, hope for the salvation of the soul, etc. The religious worldview is not based on theoretical consciousness , not on his criticality, but on the emotional, sensual, and often unconscious (intuitive) elements of the human psyche: God is comprehended by the heart, mystically, directly. In this regard, religion "wins" in comparison with the scientific or philosophical vision of the world and attitude towards it, because psychologically it is closer to a person than philosophy with its criticality, because it relies on simpler (unambiguous) and shorter in time, more understandable mechanisms. mastering the man of the world and interacting with him.
In most religions and denominations (religious directions), the religious worldview is reinforced by cult, ceremonial, expressed in acts of worship. Some denominations arrange this very magnificently and solemnly, which also has a rather powerful effect on the sensual, emotional sphere. In addition, religion also includes a materialized structure - the church, which not only unites believers around the doctrine and performs its mediating function of connecting God with man, but has many other functions that have developed depending on the historical conditions for the formation of a particular religion.
The creative almighty force - God - stands above nature and outside nature. The existence of God is experienced by man as a revelation. As a revelation, a person is given to know that his soul is immortal, that eternal life and a meeting with God await him beyond the grave.
Religion, religious consciousness, religious attitude to the world did not remain unchanged. Throughout the history of mankind, they, like other cultural formations, developed, acquired diverse forms in the East and West, in different historical eras.
But all of them were united by the fact that at the center of any religious worldview is the search for higher values, the true path of life, and the fact that both these values ​​and the life path leading to them are transferred to the other world - not to earthly, but to "eternal" life. . All deeds and deeds of a person and even his thoughts are evaluated, approved or condemned according to this highest, absolute criterion.
According to the religious worldview, reality is controlled by some supernatural forces. In Paganism, these forces are often human-like in appearance or at least in behavior (this approach is called anthropomorphism). In monotheistic religions (starting with Judaism) God is not anthropomorphic, although some denominations of monotheistic religions resort to anthropomorphic images for one reason or another.
The main characteristic features of the religious worldview:
- Religion is based on figurative-emotional, sensory-visual form of perception. The believer is the subject of religious consciousness. Such a person experiences in real emotions his vision of God, the vision of various pictures associated with the characteristics of a particular religious direction.
- Religion is not a reflective type of worldview. In religion, there is no work of a person's consciousness and his thoughts on his own consciousness, there is no reflection on his views, mental state, there is no assessment of them. In other words, we can say this: there is no reflection on one's own thoughts.
- The most important attributes of religion are Faith and Cult. Faith is a way of understanding the world by religious consciousness, these are special states of the subject's religious consciousness. A cult is a system of rituals and dogmas, it is an external form of manifestation of the Faith.
- Religion has an ethical focus. Within the framework of religious systems, religious consciousness, ethical ideas, norms, ideals, and values ​​are of great importance. Feelings of love, tolerance, compassion, conscience, mercy are cultivated in the religious consciousness. Religion forms the spiritual world of man.
The main function of religion is to help a person overcome the historically changeable, transient, relative aspects of his being and elevate a person to something absolute, eternal. In the spiritual and moral sphere, this is manifested in giving norms, values ​​and ideals an absolute, unchanging character, independent of the conjuncture of the spatio-temporal coordinates of human existence, social institutions, etc. Thus, religion gives meaning and knowledge, and hence stability of human existence, helps him to overcome worldly difficulties.

3. Philosophical worldview
Philosophy inherited from mythology and religion their ideological character, their ideological schemes, that is, the whole set of questions about the origin of the world as a whole, about its structure, about the origin of man and his position in the world, etc. It also inherited the entire volume of positive knowledge, which mankind has accumulated over thousands of years. However, the philosophical worldview differs from the religious and mythological in that it:
- based on knowledge (and not on faith or fiction);
- reflexively (there is a focus of thought on itself);
- logical (has internal unity and system);
- based on clear concepts and categories.
Thus, philosophy is the highest level and type of worldview, characterized by rationality, consistency, logic and theoretical design.
Philosophy as a worldview has gone through three main stages of its evolution:
- Cosmocentrism - a philosophical worldview, which is based on the explanation of the surrounding world, natural phenomena through the power, omnipotence, infinity of external forces - the Cosmos and, according to which, everything that exists depends on the Cosmos and cosmic cycles (this philosophy was characteristic ancient india, Ancient China, other countries of the East, as well as Ancient Greece);
- Theocentrism - a type of philosophical worldview, which is based on the explanation of everything that exists through the dominance of an inexplicable, supernatural force - God (was common in medieval Europe);
- Anthropocentrism - a type of philosophical worldview, in the center of which is the problem of man (Europe of the Renaissance, modern and modern times, modern philosophical schools) .
The emergence of philosophy as a worldview refers to the period of development and formation of a slave-owning society in the countries of the Ancient East, and the classical form of the philosophical worldview developed in Ancient Greece. Initially, materialism arose as a kind of philosophical worldview, as a scientific reaction to a religious form of worldview. Thales was the first in Ancient Greece to rise to the understanding of the material unity of the world and expressed a progressive idea about the transformation of matter, one in its essence, from one of its states to another. Thales had associates, students and followers of his views. Unlike Thales, who considered water to be the material basis of all things, they found other material foundations: Anaximenes - air, Heraclitus - fire. Philosophy is born in a polemical dialogue with the system of religious and mythological views on the world. Its own positive views are formed directly in the course of critical rethinking and transformation of the spiritual material that was left to people by their previous development. Naturally, at first it turns out to be bound by the framework of this material, is in a strong, albeit negative, dependence on it.
That is why philosophy at first appears not at all as a special science, not as a special field of knowledge, clearly highlighting the subject of its study, the range of its special problems, but as “love of wisdom” or “wisdom in general” - it considers everything that falls into the field of view of a thinking being. Its subject merges with the subject of thinking in general - it is "the world as a whole", without any clarifications and restrictions. Philosophy appears here as a synonym for worldview in general. At this stage, it is not yet necessary to speak of philosophy as a special science - for the simple reason that there are no other sciences yet. There are only weak sprouts of mathematical, astronomical and medical knowledge, growing on the basis of practical experience and oriented quite pragmatically. It is not surprising that "philosophy" from the very beginning includes all these few germs. scientific knowledge and helps them to develop in their womb, trying to free them from those magic-healer layers with which they are intertwined as part of the religious-mythological worldview. The development of philosophy here coincides completely and without a trace with the development of a scientific understanding of the surrounding world.
But that is precisely why her reflections naturally include everything that would subsequently constitute her special subject: the study of universal laws within which both “being” and “thinking” exist and change, both the comprehended cosmos and the comprehended his soul.
The philosophical worldview considers the world from the point of view of its ultimate, ultimate foundations. This type of worldview isolates the laws of the world - those forces that rule the world. The basis of the philosophical worldview is logical reasoning. The forms of existence of a philosophical worldview are the basic concepts of philosophy, which are called categories. A worldview can exist outside of philosophy, but philosophy necessarily forms a worldview.

4. Differences between the philosophical worldview and the mythological and
religious
Unlike mythology and religion, philosophy relies on the theoretical and logical thinking of man about the world. It replaces mythology and religion as a single cumulative knowledge based on a different foundation.
Philosophy is not unconditional faith, but reflection; philosophy is not a point, not a dogmatic establishment, but always a question. The basis of philosophical reflection is a critical understanding of the already established ideas about the world. As noted above, philosophy is a reflection, which means that it does not deal with the very subject of being, but with the thought of being, with a certain, already established consciousness of being. Philosophy is an analysis of our ideas about being, so the degree of its abstraction is extremely high. Reflection is a look inward, a look into yourself. According to N. Berdyaev, the philosophical worldview is not the result of idle curiosity of people not engaged in any activity, but the fruit of difficult and long reflections.
Philosophy expressed the emerging need to understand with the help of reason (i.e. rationally) in concepts, in those problems that arose in the course of historical process, therefore, a distinctive feature of the philosophical worldview is the reflection of the world in the system of concepts. In addition, the philosophical worldview, in contrast to the mythological and religious, operates more on scientific facts, more reliance on the data of specific sciences.
The mythological and religious worldview is a group, collective consciousness. Philosophy arises when there is a need for individual, personal comprehension. Each philosophical concept is purely individual. Philosophy always orients a person to an independent analysis of certain problems. The purpose of theoretical philosophy, presented in its history, is to expand the information field for such activities. The person himself always has the right to develop his own position, but on the basis of philosophical knowledge, it will be more weighty and significant.
Philosophy and religion are close for a number of reasons:
- They are close on the subject of reflection. Both are aimed at searching for the meaning of being, expressing the need for harmonization of relations.
etc.................

Philosophy is born as an attempt to solve the main worldview problems by means of reason, i.e. thinking based on concepts and judgments that are connected with each other according to certain logical laws. In contrast to the religious worldview with its predominant attention to the relationship of man to superior forces and beings, philosophy brought to the fore the intellectual aspects of the worldview, reflecting the growing need in society to understand the world and man from the standpoint of knowledge.

The emergence of philosophy meant the emergence of a special spiritual attitude - the search for harmony of knowledge about the world with the life experience of people, with their beliefs, ideals, hopes.

Philosophy has inherited from mythology and religion their ideological character, i.e. the whole set of questions about the origin of the world as a whole, about its structure, about the origin of man and his position in the world, etc. She also inherited the entire volume of positive knowledge that humanity has accumulated over the millennia. However, the solution of worldview problems in the emerging philosophy took place from a different angle, namely from the standpoint of rational assessment, from the standpoint of reason. Therefore, we can say that philosophy is a theoretically formulated worldview.

Philosophy is a special, scientific-theoretical type of worldview. It represents the highest stage and type of worldview, characterized by rationality, consistency, logic and theoretical formalization.

Differences between the philosophical worldview and the religious and mythological:

̶ philosophical worldview is based on knowledge (and not on faith or fiction);

̶ the philosophical worldview is reflexive (there is an inversion of thought towards itself);

̶ philosophical outlook is logical (has internal unity and system);

̶ philosophical outlook is based on clear concepts and categories.

The main stages of the evolution of philosophy as a worldview:

- Cosmocentrism- this is a philosophical worldview, which is based on the explanation of the surrounding world, natural phenomena through the power, omnipotence, infinity of external forces - the Cosmos and according to which everything that exists depends on the Cosmos and cosmic cycles (this philosophy was characteristic of Ancient India, Ancient China, other countries of the East as well as Ancient Greece).

- Theocentrism- this is a type of philosophical worldview, which is based on the explanation of everything that exists through the dominance of the inexplicable, supernatural power- God (was common in medieval Europe).

- anthropocentrism- a type of philosophical worldview, in the center of which is the problem of man (Europe of the Renaissance, Modern and Contemporary times, modern philosophical schools).

Historically, a form of the theoretical nature of comprehension of the world appears, the symbol is replaced by Logos – intelligence. Philosophy is born as an attempt to solve the main worldview problems by means of reason, i.e. thinking based on concepts And judgments, communicating with each other according to certain logical laws. Unlike religion, philosophy brought to the fore the intellectual aspects of the worldview, reflecting the growing need in society to understand the world and man from the standpoint of knowledge and rationality. Initially, she acted in the historical arena as a search for worldly wisdom.

Philosophy is a theoretically formulated worldview, it is one of the forms of human culture. Hence, worldview in philosophy appears in the form of knowledge and is systematized, ordered. And this moment essentially brings together philosophy and science. The beginning of philosophy is the beginning of science in general. This is confirmed by history. Philosophy is the mother of science. The first naturalists were at the same time philosophers. Philosophy is brought closer to science by the desire to rely on theoretical methods of research, to use logical tools to substantiate one's positions, to develop reliable, generally valid principles and provisions.

History shows that the theoretical form of substantiating reality, the field of knowledge, is formed precisely within the framework of philosophy. But as the empirical material accumulated and the methods of scientific research improved, the forms of theoretical assimilation of reality became differentiated. Sometimes this process is described as a branching off from the philosophy of specific sciences. In European culture, this process took place in two main stages, which have some indirect connection with each other.

First stage associated with the differentiation of the theoretical form of the development of reality in ancient Greek culture. This period was most clearly recorded in the system of Aristotle (4th century BC).

Second phase- XVI-XVII centuries, when science is formed as an independent social institution. Since that time, private sciences have been mastering certain areas of nature and society. At the same time, they rely on experimental (empirical) research methods. Philosophy, based on concrete scientific knowledge, sees its task in the synthesis of various human knowledge, in the formation of a single scientific picture peace.

Thus, after the formation of independent branches of scientific knowledge - mathematics, physics, biology, chemistry, etc. - philosophy lost its function of being the only form of theoretical exploration of reality. But under these conditions, the specificity of philosophy as a form of universal theoretical knowledge was more clearly revealed. Philosophy is a form of knowledge of the most general, or rather, universal foundations of being.

Philosophical generalization has a much wider potential than any other specific generalization. The sciences, by their very nature, must proceed from everyday life experience and special experiments. Experience has its limits. A philosophical thought inherent in seeing the world outside of human experience. No experience allows us to comprehend the world as an integral, boundless in space and timeless, infinitely superior to human forces, independent of the individual and humanity as a whole, an objective reality that people must constantly reckon with. A holistic understanding of the world gives a worldview support to specific scientific research, allows them to move forward, correctly pose and solve their problems. Therefore, a characteristic feature of the philosophical way of mastering reality is universalism. Throughout the history of culture, philosophy has claimed to develop universal knowledge or universal principles of spiritual and moral life. And this found its expression in such images of philosophy as the “mother of sciences”, “science of sciences”, “queen of sciences”.

Short description

Depending on what views prevail in one or another set of ideas about the world as a whole, and also depending on the way the corresponding views and ideas are included in the structure of the worldview and the way they are justified, we can talk about different types of worldview. In different societies, in different classes, different types of worldview dominate, which differ in their peculiar interpretation of the phenomena of the external world and of the person himself.

Unlike mythological polytheism, monotheism (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) already places a person in relation to the world, to God, as to separated from it, transcendental (transcended beyond sensory understanding) realities of being - being not earthly, but higher, heavenly , establishing the entire world hierarchy and harmony, in which man occupied a subordinate, secondary place after God. God and man in monotheism begin to oppose each other as different spheres of being. And these spheres are evaluated in different ways: the highest - the lowest, bliss - suffering, true heavenly - untrue earthly, grace - sinful. This dualism of being really expressed the disharmony of man with the reality around him. This idea put a person in front of a dilemma: how to bridge this gap? As a result, a new worldview is being formed - a system of dogmas (unshakable establishments) united within each religion, headed by the Absolute - God. A system of life prescriptions is being formed, given as a revelation of God to the chosen ones, the prophets. In Judaism, this is Moses, in Christianity, Jesus Christ and the apostles, in Islam, Mohammed. The system of dogmas is already ready and immutable; it does not require a person to doubt its correctness and does not require the development of one's own ideas about values. Only one thing is expected from a person here - unconditional faith both in the prescriptions themselves (dogmas and commandments), and in the one on whose behalf they are broadcast to the world, to people.

The main function of the religious worldview is psychological and pacifying. French educator and philosopher of the 18th century. Voltaire wrote that if there were no religion, it would have to be specially created, since, first of all, religion teaches a person patience, modesty, humility and hope.

Religious faith is called upon to give the believer life stability, directs to those establishments that a person cannot help but like: respect for traditions, confidence in the fight against life's hardships, courage in the face of death, hope for the salvation of the soul, etc. The religious worldview is not based on theoretical consciousness , not on his criticality, but on the emotional, sensual, and often unconscious (intuitive) elements of the human psyche: God is comprehended by the heart, mystically, directly. In this regard, religion "wins" in comparison with the scientific or philosophical vision of the world and attitude towards it, because psychologically it is closer to a person than philosophy with its criticality, because it relies on simpler (unambiguous) and shorter in time, more understandable mechanisms. mastering the man of the world and interacting with him.

In most religions and denominations (religious directions), the religious worldview is reinforced by cult, ceremonial, expressed in acts of worship. Some denominations arrange this very magnificently and solemnly, which also has a rather powerful effect on the sensual, emotional sphere. In addition, religion also includes a materialized structure - the church, which not only unites believers around the doctrine and performs its mediating function of connecting God with man, but has many other functions that have developed depending on the historical conditions for the formation of a particular religion.

The creative almighty force - God - stands above nature and outside nature. The existence of God is experienced by man as a revelation. As a revelation, a person is given to know that his soul is immortal, that eternal life and a meeting with God await him beyond the grave.

Religion, religious consciousness, religious attitude to the world did not remain unchanged. Throughout the history of mankind, they, like other cultural formations, developed, acquired diverse forms in the East and West, in different historical eras.

But all of them were united by the fact that at the center of any religious worldview is the search for higher values, the true path of life, and the fact that both these values ​​and the life path leading to them are transferred to the other world - not to earthly, but to "eternal" life. . All deeds and deeds of a person and even his thoughts are evaluated, approved or condemned according to this highest, absolute criterion.

According to the religious worldview, reality is controlled by some supernatural forces. In Paganism, these forces are often human-like in appearance or at least in behavior (this approach is called anthropomorphism). In monotheistic religions (starting with Judaism) God is not anthropomorphic, although some denominations of monotheistic religions resort to anthropomorphic images for one reason or another.

The main characteristic features of the religious worldview:

Religion is based on figurative-emotional, sensory-visual form of perception. The believer is the subject of religious consciousness. Such a person experiences in real emotions his vision of God, the vision of various pictures associated with the characteristics of a particular religious direction.

Religion is not a reflective type of worldview. In religion, there is no work of a person's consciousness and his thoughts on his own consciousness, there is no reflection on his views, mental state, there is no assessment of them. In other words, we can say this: there is no reflection on one's own thoughts.

The most important attributes of religion are Faith and Cult. Faith is a way of understanding the world by religious consciousness, these are special states of the subject's religious consciousness. A cult is a system of rituals and dogmas, it is an external form of manifestation of the Faith.

Religion has an ethical focus. Within the framework of religious systems, religious consciousness, ethical ideas, norms, ideals, and values ​​are of great importance. Feelings of love, tolerance, compassion, conscience, mercy are cultivated in the religious consciousness. Religion forms the spiritual world of man.

The main function of religion is to help a person overcome the historically changeable, transient, relative aspects of his being and elevate a person to something absolute, eternal. In the spiritual and moral sphere, this is manifested in giving norms, values ​​and ideals an absolute, unchanging character, independent of the conjuncture of the spatio-temporal coordinates of human existence, social institutions, etc. Thus, religion gives meaning and knowledge, and hence stability of human existence, helps him to overcome worldly difficulties.

3. Philosophical worldview

Philosophy inherited from mythology and religion their ideological character, their ideological schemes, that is, the whole set of questions about the origin of the world as a whole, about its structure, about the origin of man and his position in the world, etc. It also inherited the entire volume of positive knowledge, which mankind has accumulated over thousands of years. However, the philosophical worldview differs from the religious and mythological in that it:

Based on knowledge (and not on faith or fiction);

Reflexively (there is a focus of thought on itself);

Logical (has internal unity and system);

Relies on clear concepts and categories.

Thus, philosophy is the highest level and type of worldview, characterized by rationality, consistency, logic and theoretical design.

Philosophy as a worldview has gone through three main stages of its evolution:

Cosmocentrism is a philosophical worldview, which is based on the explanation of the surrounding world, natural phenomena through the power, omnipotence, infinity of external forces - the Cosmos and, according to which, everything that exists depends on the Cosmos and cosmic cycles (this philosophy was characteristic of Ancient India, Ancient China, others countries of the East, as well as Ancient Greece);

Theocentrism - a type of philosophical worldview, which is based on the explanation of everything that exists through the dominance of an inexplicable, supernatural force - God (was common in medieval Europe);

Anthropocentrism is a type of philosophical worldview, in the center of which is the problem of man (Europe of the Renaissance, modern and modern times, modern philosophical schools).

The emergence of philosophy as a worldview refers to the period of development and formation of a slave-owning society in the countries of the Ancient East, and the classical form of the philosophical worldview developed in Ancient Greece. Initially, materialism arose as a kind of philosophical worldview, as a scientific reaction to a religious form of worldview. Thales was the first in Ancient Greece to rise to the understanding of the material unity of the world and expressed a progressive idea about the transformation of matter, one in its essence, from one of its states to another. Thales had associates, students and followers of his views. Unlike Thales, who considered water to be the material basis of all things, they found other material foundations: Anaximenes - air, Heraclitus - fire. Philosophy is born in a polemical dialogue with the system of religious and mythological views on the world. Its own positive views are formed directly in the course of critical rethinking and transformation of the spiritual material that was left to people by their previous development. Naturally, at first it turns out to be bound by the framework of this material, is in a strong, albeit negative, dependence on it.

That is why philosophy at first appears not at all as a special science, not as a special field of knowledge, clearly highlighting the subject of its study, the range of its special problems, but as “love of wisdom” or “wisdom in general” - it considers everything that falls into the field of view of a thinking being. Its subject merges with the subject of thinking in general - it is "the world as a whole", without any clarifications and restrictions. Philosophy appears here as a synonym for worldview in general. At this stage, it is not yet necessary to speak of philosophy as a special science - for the simple reason that there are no other sciences yet. There are only weak sprouts of mathematical, astronomical and medical knowledge, growing on the basis of practical experience and oriented quite pragmatically. It is not surprising that "philosophy" from the very beginning includes all these few germs of scientific knowledge and helps them to develop in its womb, trying to free them from those magic-healer layers with which they are intertwined as part of the religious-mythological worldview. The development of philosophy here coincides completely and without a trace with the development of a scientific understanding of the surrounding world.

But that is precisely why her reflections naturally include everything that would subsequently constitute her special subject: the study of universal laws within which both “being” and “thinking” exist and change, both the comprehended cosmos and the comprehended his soul.

The philosophical worldview considers the world from the point of view of its ultimate, ultimate foundations. This type of worldview isolates the laws of the world - those forces that rule the world. The basis of the philosophical worldview is logical reasoning. The forms of existence of a philosophical worldview are the basic concepts of philosophy, which are called categories. A worldview can exist outside of philosophy, but philosophy necessarily forms a worldview.

4. Differences between the philosophical worldview and the mythological and

religious

Unlike mythology and religion, philosophy relies on the theoretical and logical thinking of man about the world. It replaces mythology and religion as a single cumulative knowledge based on a different foundation.

Philosophy is not unconditional faith, but reflection; philosophy is not a point, not a dogmatic establishment, but always a question. The basis of philosophical reflection is a critical understanding of the already established ideas about the world. As noted above, philosophy is a reflection, which means that it does not deal with the very subject of being, but with the thought of being, with a certain, already established consciousness of being. Philosophy is an analysis of our ideas about being, so the degree of its abstraction is extremely high. Reflection is a look inward, a look into yourself. According to N. Berdyaev, the philosophical worldview is not the result of idle curiosity of people not engaged in any activity, but the fruit of difficult and long reflections.

Philosophy expressed the emerging need to understand with the help of reason (i.e. rationally) in concepts, in those problems that arose in the course of the historical process, therefore, a distinctive feature of the philosophical worldview is the reflection of the world in a system of concepts. In addition, the philosophical worldview, in contrast to the mythological and religious, operates more on scientific facts, more reliance on the data of specific sciences.

The mythological and religious worldview is a group, collective consciousness. Philosophy arises when there is a need for individual, personal comprehension. Each philosophical concept is purely individual. Philosophy always orients a person to an independent analysis of certain problems. The purpose of theoretical philosophy, presented in its history, is to expand the information field for such activities. The person himself always has the right to develop his own position, but on the basis of philosophical knowledge, it will be more weighty and significant.
