Polischuk, V. I. The Three Answers to the Question about Human

Abstract: The author of the article shares his own views on how the problem of human has been solved in history. This problem is formed as a question about what makes us human. The author gives the following three answers to this question: we become human when we rise over our earthly affections or try to get to know the world around or ourselves. Obviously, modern (technological) civilization is an example of the second answer to the question about human. It is fatal both for nature and human himself. Many philosophers pointed out that the third answer was actually efficient — the option when the culture is saved.


Keywords:

psychology, human, culture, mind, formation, spirit, truth, transcendental, immanent, choice.
