Non-violent aspect of the problem of identity

The work is devoted to understanding the new speculative-realist approach to the consideration of the non-violent aspect of the problem of identity. There is a close connection between the problem of identity and a broader one of its kind — the problem of identification. Particular attention is drawn to the epistemological principles of the new approach and how they relate to the very idea of identity. Based on a detailed consideration of these principles, the role and place of the principle of non-violence in solving the problem of identity is stated.
