A knowledge evolutionary way justification and formalization

Gribkov Andrey A.

A new formulation of the problem of cognition, based on the justification of the objectivity of subjective cognition, comprehension of the genesis and consequences of the principle of similarity and the concept of representativeness, as well as the justification of the possibility and definition of the way of cognition from simple to complex, is proposed. The existing approaches and arguments confirming the objectivity of subjective cognition are considered. On the basis of comprehension of the principle of similarity conclusions are made about the finite complexity of the world, the existence of the limit of separability of being and the possibility of using representativeness as a criterion of truth. A new evolutionary way of cognition is proposed, which allows to bring the way of cognition as close as possible to the "way" of development of the universe, thereby ensuring representativeness and reliability of the results of cognition.
