ELUCIDATION OF THE SENSE OF OPENNESS THROUGH DECONSTRUCTION OF THE CONCEPT OF TOTALITARIANISM

Summary/Abstract: Aim of the article is to elucide the very problem of openness through deconstruction of the concept of totalitarianism deffined as a contrary to liberalism. In the first part author elaborates new concept of totalitarianism as defined with three main components of the phenomena: 1) Transcendental agreement (convenant) in relation to the eshatological truth given in four topos within the scope of modern ideas: god, nation, social class, man; 2) Tautology of legitimization – in relation to the Other; 3) Scientization of charisma – in relation to the world; 4) Political Messianism and Manicheism – in relation to the self. Historical explanation provides the genesis of the concept of heavenly contract through the transformation of transcendence into the immanence of the world through three cases: 1) Puritanism of the 16th Century (Jean Calvin and John Knox); 2) Jacobinism of the 18th Century (Rousseau and Robespierre); 3) Marxism of the 19-20th Century (from Marx to Lenin).
