The concept of body and the problem of demarcation in new European metaphysics: from Descartes to Kant
The origin of science and the demarcation between science and metaphysics are the main features of early modern period. This demarcation faces a particular problem with conceptualisation of body, which can be considered both as just physical body and as closely bound up with spirit....
Geopolitical regionalisation of the Baltic area: the essence and historical dynamics
..., highlighting it within the complex multidimensional structure of geopolitical space. Summarising these approaches, it is more appropriate to speak of the Baltic region having several geopolitical contours as zoning principles, rather than distinct demarcation variants (see Figure).

Open Use of Reason: Socrates and Kant
... implies accessibility of knowledge to the largest possible number of people. However, openness is a broader concept: it makes it possible both to explain the interconnection between the freedom of reason and its publicity advocated by Kant and to draw a demarcation line between Socrates and the Sophists who were also public intellectuals. Whereas the Sophists sought personal gain and popularity, Socrates viewed the practice of philosophy as a form of self-sacrifice for the good of society; this led the ...
The border as a barrier and an incentive for the structural economic transformation of the Kaliningrad exclave
... are a dynamic and evolving interdisciplinary field of academic inquiry with a strong theoretical framework. A comprehensive review of this field is available in [1]. The contemporary paradigm conceptualises state borders, much like any other formal demarcations, as dynamic social institutions. Notably, these institutions are not static lines but rather variable entities receptive to the ever-changing international landscape, bilateral relationships, currency exchange rates, global price structures,...
A part outside the whole? (To Anton Zimmerling's article “Really: syntactics without semiotics?”)
Before delving into the connections between linguistics and semiotics, it is essential to establish a clear demarcation between these fields, which necessitates a precise definition of each subject. However, the approach taken by Anton Zimmerling in this regard is subject to debate. In the discussion of semiotics, the focus tends to lean towards interpretations ...
Estonian ‘Balticness’ as a social construct: meanings and contextual specifics
.... Such a focus was characteristic of traditional regional geography.<11>
A prime example is the work by the British researcher Peter Hagget Locational analysis in human geography. He links the fact of the existence of a region to ‘successive demarcation of regional cores and boundaries’ [22, р. 254], which covers a range of variables subject to measurement and comparison: climate, landscape, economic development, etc.
Hagget, like other followers of the traditional school, saw regions ...

Consequences and Design in General and Transcendental Logic
In this article, I consider Kant’s dichotomy between general and transcendental logic in light of a retrospective reconstruction of two approaches originating in 14th century scholasticism that are used to demarcate formal and material consequences. The first approach (e. g., John Buridan, Albert of Saxony, Marsilius of Inghen) holds that a consequence is formal if it is valid — because of its form only — for any matter. Since the matter of a consequence ...
The significance of the critique of A. I. Vvedensky’s ‘new psychophysiological law’ for Russian philosophy
... metaphysical origins in scientific knowledge in order to eliminate them, although preserving the particular critical field of metaphysics dealing with issues transcending the available rational knowledge. Such an approach to the role of metaphysics, as well as demarcation of the border between philosophy and psychology amid the need for coherent knowledge provoked sharp criticism. The author describes Vvednesky’s position, which can be traced in all of his later works. Its central elements is the need to ...

Recreational zoning of the territory of the Kaliningrad region
This article provides a detailed definition of the concepts of ‘tourist area demarcation’ and ‘tourist zoning’. The earlier proposed components of competitiveness index help identify four major groups of factors of recreation zone differentiation. The recreation zoning of the Kaliningrad region was carried out in view of ...
Urban planning of Russian urban districts: Practices, problems, solutions

The concept of body and the problem of demarcation in new European metaphysics: from Descartes to Kant
The formation of science and its separation from metaphysics are among the key characteristics of the early modern period. This separation faces a particular problem with conceptualization of body, which, while being a physical body, is closely bound up with spirit. Different ways of explaining the interaction between mind and body form a complex tradition, which has significantly influenced Kant’s pre-Critical writings. Reducing that crucial distinction between two substances to the empirical...
