Economic philosophy as a subject of self-determination of personality
If we consider self-determination as a search for a value-semantic understanding of existence of man in a social environment, then we can say that at the deepest level, the subject of selfdetermination is the meaning of life at various levels of social interaction and subjective perception of the world. The practical result of self-determination can be a meaningful activity focused on a value-semantic understanding of the integrity of an individual's life in society. Ultimately, a person strives for the activity that subjectively makes sense for him, allows him to check the truth of selfdetermination and self-realization. In Russian, the semantic meaning of the word "meaning" is the answer to the question of how to understand "something", for example, "the meaning of a metaphor", "the meaning of a fairy tale", "the meaning of an article". Another determination of the word "meaning" is the result of achieving a certain goal (real or supposed), for example, "what was the point of doing this?", "explain the meaning of your decision", "what is the point of these reforms?" In other words, it is getting an answer to the question "why?". E. Erikson, introducing the category of "psychosocial identity", describes the age stages of personality development, which are designed to resolve psychosocial crises at different stages of personality development (identification).
