bit of history of the term
term "ontology" has been introduced from Germany philosopher Rudolph Goclenius.In the development of the concept to invest in it repeatedly changed.In medieval times, trying to create a theory of being, he was treated as a philosophical proof of the truths of religion.With the advent of the New Age philosophy, ontology became part of metaphysics be studying supersensible structure of all existence.
Today ontology - a section of the philosophy of being, the super-sensible world and the world at large.
Thus, the term "metaphysics" and "ontology" close to each other in meaning.For a time they were used as synonyms.Over time, the term "metaphysics" has fallen into disuse, and his place on the right to occupy the ontology.
object of study in the ontology
There are two main aspects - being and nothingness - which is engaged in the study of ontology in philosophy.For the philosophical understanding of all that exists in the world category of life serves as a reference.Ontological research involves the use of an entire world system of philosophical categories, the main ones are the concepts of existence and nonexistence.
Genesis is the overarching reality that exists, there is actually.The concept of "being" includes the world that really exists.It forms the basis of all phenomena and objects, making their presence.Nothingness - is the lack, unreality of all, is a concrete, that is.Thus, an ontology - a branch of philosophy of the essence, existence.
Origin and development of the ontology
What are the stages of development took place in the philosophy of ontology?Philosophy as a science and the question of being there at the same time.For the first time he took up the study of the ancient philosopher Parmenides.For him, being and thought are identical concepts.He also claimed that being does not appear from somewhere and destroy it as impossible, real estate and it will never end in time.Nothingness, in his opinion, does not exist.
Democritus hold the view that everything constituent atoms, thus acknowledging the existence and nonexistence.
Plato was opposed to the world of spiritual ideas and essences - that is the true being, the world of sensible things, which tend to vary.He recognized and being and nothingness.
Aristotle represented the matter as "being in the possibility."
The exercise that originated in the Middle Ages, by being aware of God.With the advent of the New Age philosophy ontology being interpreted as the mind, the mind of man.The only unquestionable and authentic being is a person, and needs her consciousness, her life.It consists of the following basic forms: the spiritual and material life of the person, the existence of things, being of a society (social).This unity helps to introduce a common basis of all that exists.
legal philosophical ontology
What is the essence of law in general, can not be understood without clarifying what constitutes a legal philosophical ontology.
realities of everyday life contrasted with the system evaluates the regulatory world, which is subject to man.It dictates of each person are different rules and requirements - political, moral and legal.This system also makes certain standards in each life-world (for example, at what age can attend school, participate in election processes, to marry, brought to administrative and criminal liability), prescribes certain norms of behavior.
Thus, philosophical and legal ontology - a way of organizing and interpretation of certain aspects of social life and at the same time of human existence.Being right and being actually have significant differences, because the legal being provided to perform certain duties.Man must obey the law accepted in society.Therefore, the philosophical and legal ontology - this branch of science has its own specifics.Being right he regards as "being-duty".The right to a sphere proper, namely the fact that "visibly" as it does not exist, but a reality which is of great importance in the life of every member of society.
Under the legal reality is meant also the system that exists within the human being.It consists of elements, which tend to perform certain functions.In fact, this add-in, which includes the legal institutions, attitudes and consciousness.
