Bioethics: Reincarnation of Natural Philosophy in Modern Science
The theory of evolution of complex and comprising of human systems and algorithm for its
constructing are the synthesis of evolutionary epistemology, philosophical anthropology and
concrete scientific empirical basis in modern (transdisciplinary) science. «Trans-disciplinary» in
the context is interpreted as a completely new epistemological situation, which is fraught with the
initiation of a civilizational crisis. Philosophy and ideology of technogenic civilization is based on
the possibility of unambiguous demarcation of public value and descriptive scientific discourses
(1), and the object and subject of the cognitive process (2). Both of these attributes are no longer
valid. For mass, everyday consciousness and institutional philosophical tradition it is intuitively
obvious that having the ability to control the evolutionary process, Homo sapiens came close to the
borders of their own biological and cultural identity. The spontaneous coevolutionary process of
interaction between the «subject» (rational living organisms) and the «object» (material world), is
the teleological trend of the movement towards the complete rationalization of the World as It Is,
its merger with the World of Due. The stratification of the global evolutionary process into selective
and semantic (teleological) coevolutionary and therefore ontologically inseparable components
follows. With the entry of anthropogenic civilization into the stage of the information society, firsty,
the post-academic phase of the historical evolution of scientific rationality began, the attributes of
which are the specific methodology of scientific knowledge, scientific ethos and ontology. Bioethics
as a phenomenon of intellectual culture represents a natural philosophical core of modern post-
academic (human-dimensional) science, in which the ethical neutrality of scientific theory
principle is inapplicable, and elements of public-axiological and scientific-descriptive discourses
are integrated into a single logic construction. As result, hermeneutics precedes epistemology not
only methodologically, but also meaningfully, and natural philosophy is regaining the status of the
backbone of the theory of evolution – in an explicit for
Age of Genetics and the age of biotechnology on the way to editing of, human genome
