Akilova, M. M. On the Question of Categorical Concepts of the Part and the Whole and Their Dialectics

Abstract: The article is devoted to the methodological meaning of the categorical concepts of the part and the whole from the point of view of development of Tadjik nation as an ethos. The author makes an attempt to give definitions of the part and the whole and explain their dialectics. The purpose of this article is to show methodological meaning of certain categorical concepts in dialectics and the correlation between them. Keeping that in mind, their dialects show how neutral these concepts are even though they become more than concrete in the context of this or that aspect of reality. Based on that, the author concluded that these two categories are incomplete by their nature but BECOME compete in this or another aspect of reality or this or another philosophical teaching. This is the wonderful example of the methodological pluralism. From this point of view, Tadjiks can be considered a complete nation from one hand but they can be also viewed as diverse parts of nation scattered throughout Central Asia and Afghanistan on the other hand. However, we must admit that this is a complete nation when we talk about their language and identity.


Keywords:
