NON-CLASSICAL DISCOURSE OF FREEDOM

It is shown that modern characteristics of freedom are formed in the process of overcoming the position according to which freedom is understood as the opportunity to achieve set goals, based on the study of patterns that make it possible to predict and control further development. The modern discourse of freedom is formed in the process of transition from the search and establishment of patterns to chaos; from purposeful and rational actions to rebellion and irrational moments in creativity. Important conditions for achieving freedom are the rejection of identity and the “cult” of difference. Difference as an ontological principle allows one to overcome the pressure of the system. And the result of the ongoing transitions and new ways of describing freedom is a homeless nomad person, living in chaos, capable of refusing effective actions aimed at achieving results and, as a consequence, from the order of the world. It is concluded that the change in the vocabulary describing the characteristics of freedom is associated with the strengthening of the position according to which knowledge is not a representation of objective laws, but is only one of the ways to describe the world. Consequently, the possibility of a radical change in approaches to understanding freedom indicates that freedom is a form of human existence in which the need arises to make a decision regarding oneself.
