PHILOSOPHICAL EXPLANATION OF THE PROBLEM OF THE "OTHER" IN CLASSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY: EVOLUTIONISM AND ETHNOCENTRISM
This article explores the ontological and epistemological relationship between the disciplines of philosophy and classical anthropology of the late 19th - early 20th centuries, using the example of the analysis of the philosophical category of «the other». In the course of the study of the philosophical problem of «the other», classical anthropological paradigms such as evolutionism and ethno(Euro)centrism are analyzed. The conclusion is made about the perception of «the other» as inferior, underdeveloped and / or hostile by evolutionary and ethnocentric anthropologists.
