Boris Vysheslavtsev as a Critic of Industrial Culture: in Search of a New Social and Anthropological Ideal
The article examines the ideas of B.P. Vysheslavtsev as he is a critic of industrial culture. Critical theses concerning industrialism as a whole are discussed in order to then highlight and focus in more detail the critique of the anthropological ideal of the new industrial culture from the general critical reflection of the philosopher. Taking as a basis the criticism of B.P. Vysheslavtsev, the author makes an attempt to construct an idea of the Russian philosopher's own anthropological ideal, linking them with the religious intuitions of B.P. Vysheslavtsev in line with Christianity. In the light of the consideration of the anthropological concept, its influence on the formation of the social ideal and the relationship that is built between the anthropological and social dimensions and their mutual influence are taken into account.
