FEATURES OF UNDERSTANDING THE HISTORICAL PROCESS IN THE PHILOSOPHY OF OTHMAR SPANN
This work is devoted to the review of the main ideas of the philosophical and historical concept of the Austrian researcher Othmar Spann (1878-1950). The thinker identifies a number of specific features of the historical process that distinguish it from the mechanical interaction of events. The most important features of history, in his opinion, are semantic connection instead of causal and the human factor, expressed in free creativity, including despite subjective inconveniences.
