Being and Time: 80 years later

Article

Abstract

[In Russian]

The article reflects on impact of Heidegger’s Being and Time
on the philosophical and intellectual climate 80 years after its
publication. Although this book remained an unfinished torso and
contained an unprecedented, radical critique of basic principles of
traditional philosophy, it influenced greatly developments not only
in philosophy but also in humanities and social sciences.
In contrast to the constructivist character of the previous philosophical tradition aimed at securing absolute ground as a starting
point of philosophical reflection, Heidegger introduces Dasein as
something which is being thrown in the midst of always conditioned, factual situation it can never master or fully grasp. According to Heidegger, it would require, on the side of philosophy,
complete reconsideration of its basic principles and existing terminology (Begrifflichkeit) in order to make them more adequate to
the challenges of our life.
