“Оставить только то, что не сдается”.Толстой о зле, добре и человеческом достоинстве*
Вопросы философии. 2017. № 10. С. 98–110.
The article deals with the problems of Evil, Good and Dignity in the thought of Leo Tolstoy that are considered in the perspective of Tolstoy’s criticism of the State bureaucracy and the dehumanization of the Man. Tolstoy was one of the first to examine the concept of “Mass Man” and showed its entrenching in public opinion and ideology in consequence of the law of inertia. The law countervailing social inertia is the law of infection. Tolstoy understood it as wavy spread better from one Human being to another, the involvement of all in a genuine (religious) life through self-denial and in living not for oneself, but for others and for God. Criticism of the State was not meant to anarchic destruction, but rather was connected with his faith in the spontaneous ability of the autonomous individual for responsible judgments and deeds.

It is this ability of interfaces to legitimize “absence” that is usually overlooked in their analysis, as the emphasis is on concentration, management, and control. In reality, interfaces are not so much pragmatic and ...
