Differentiation and Attractive Coherence In The Self-Individualizing Life-Process

As recurrently pointed out, the great issue that philosophy shares with all branches of knowledge and practice is that of the “differentiation and unity” of everything there is. In Antiquity budding scientific research shared with philosophical reflection its main points of departure, ways of approach, and key points of orientation within the universe of human being. Then with Kant and later with Husserl philosophy took its very own course, namely, one that treated the issue of the differentiation and unity of all there is with reference to human modes of constituting reality, that is, with reference to consciousness. Husserl, as we know, ultimately conceived of consciousness in relation to the lifeworld, that is, to the ways in which conscious being spreads its existential tentacles through the contexture of the world.
