Abstract

The phenomenon of home has acquired a new meaning and becomes a relevant object of philosophical, scientific and systemic research. The article proposes to analyze the house from the sociocultural point of view of dialectical orientation. This approach allows us to consider the most famous and diverse phenomenon as an integral system of society. But instead of the traditional metaphor of “idols” of cognition, which hinder the cognition of the essence of phenomena, the metaphor of “guards of the house” is proposed, which shows the activity and diversity of acting causes. These guards protect the essence of the house as a universal sociocultural system of society, not as a local phenomenon. So far, this essence is hidden by stereotypes of ordinary consciousness, special disciplines, intuition and house-building practice. Therefore, the aim is set: to reveal the epistemological guardians of the house in their interrelation. In this the author sees the novelty of his goal and the obtained results of the analysis. It is shown that stereotypes are the greatest restraining force that does not allow to reveal the essence of the house as a socio-cultural integral system. The explicit guardians of the sociocultural essence of home are the manifold disciplinary and practical definitions of home. The hidden factor in concealing the sociocultural essence of the house is intuition. The fact is that intuition itself as a form of cognition is formed by the spiritual experience of house-building, the ability of the house to be the starting point of orientation in the world and its cognition. In the process of revealing the integral sociocultural nature of the house, digital technologies have acquired a contradictory significance: they allow to act as a sociocultural model of the house system and, at the same time, to displace a person from the real sociocultural system of houses. As a result, the human being loses his real subjectivity. The sociocultural approach to revealing the factors of concealing the essence of the interconnection of houses allows us to adjust the strategy of solving the housing problem in society. The prospects of research of modern information technologies in concealing and in revealing the essence of the house as a sociocultural system of society are shown. The materials of the article are recommended for use in the development of house building projects of various levels.
