Abstract: In the arena of socio-philosophical exploration, the comprehension of historical-cultural heritage often

overlooks its intricate layers. Unlike the gradual assimilation and intergenerational appreciation of heritage,

the concept of phenomenon fails to capture its essence adequately. This oversight diminishes the heritage's

stature, reducing it to a mere surface-level observation rather than recognising its profound complexity and

intrinsic worth. Hence, there arises a critical need to reassess our approach, acknowledging the multifaceted

nature of historical-cultural heritage and transcending a simplistic understanding. By doing so, we can better

grasp its depth and significance, fostering a deeper understanding of our shared cultural legacy and its

enduring relevance across generations.

1 INTRODUCTION

In socio-philosophical exploration, the

comprehension of historical-cultural heritage often

bypasses its intricate layers. Unlike the gradual

assimilation and intergenerational appreciation of

heritage, the concept of phenomenon fails to capture

its essence adequately. This oversight diminishes the

heritage's stature, reducing it to a mere surface-level

observation rather than recognising its profound

complexity and intrinsic worth. Hence, there arises a

critical need to reassess our approach, acknowledging

the multifaceted nature of historical-cultural heritage

and transcending a simplistic understanding. By

doing so, we can better grasp its depth and

significance, fostering a deeper understanding of our

shared cultural legacy and its enduring relevance

across generations.

cornerstone of understanding its significance and

complexities. Contrary to ready-made ideologies,

philosophers like B. Russell advocate for an objective

pursuit of truth, arguing against preconceived notions

that limit the scope of philosophical inquiry.

According to Russell, relying on predetermined

opinions obstructs objective exploration, hindering

the philosopher's ethical and intellectual

responsibilities. A true philosopher, therefore, must

critically examine all assumptions surrounding a

problem to uncover its multifaceted nature. By

embracing conflicting viewpoints and approaching

issues objectively, philosophers uphold the integrity

of their profession and avoid falling into the trap of

narrow-mindedness.

Furthermore, the epistemological exploration of truth

sheds light on the objectivity inherent in historical-

cultural heritage. Philosophical inquiries into truth,

whether through correspondence or usefulness, reveal

the essence of reality and its reflection in human

cognition. This understanding distinguishes

dialectical realism from other philosophical

perspectives, emphasising the dynamic nature of truth

and its continual evolution. As Nazarov contends,

truth manifests concretely over time, inseparable

from the context and processes of its era. Hence, the

interpretation of historical-cultural heritage must

consider both the temporal context and the artefacts

that embody its paradigmatic features, ensuring a

holistic understanding of its significance.

3 RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS

Getting deep into the intricacies of historical and

cultural heritage unveils a profound connection with

time, periods, and processes. This connection

necessitates a gradual, evolutionary approach to

understanding it fully. History serves as a synthesis of

intergenerational relations, with historical and

cultural heritage forming its core essence. However,

the evolutionary approach to this subject is

multifaceted, shaped by the researcher's desires and

epistemological experiences.

Researchers may adopt various evolutionary

approaches, ranging from conservative to radical,

each aiming to interpret historical and cultural

heritage through different lenses. Yet, there's no

single revolutionary approach or absolute rejection of

evolutionary progress. Revolutions, as interpreted in

scientific literature, often signify a complete

departure from evolutionary progress. However,

despite the profound impact of events like the

Bolshevik revolution and militant atheism on social

consciousness, certain cultural and religious values

remain deeply ingrained within societies.

Gradualism, as a concept, embodies the gradual

nature of action and activity in individual and societal

life. It entails a sequence of changes and events

unfolding within the global landscape. Historical-

cultural heritage draws its essence from tradition,

serving as an expression and criterion of tradition

itself. To comprehend the evolutionary development

of social life, one must first examine historical and

cultural heritage for signs of intergenerational

relations.

Throughout history, societal attitudes towards

building an ideal society have evolved. While some

periods favoured contentment with existing

traditions, others advocated for social change and

modernization. Over time, the latter perspective

gained precedence, leading to paradigm shifts in

intergenerational relations within historical-cultural

heritage. This transition, although sometimes labelled

as erroneous, signifies the abandonment of

conservative views in favour of embracing

modernity, science, and enlightenment.

The quest for progress also influences the political

landscape, challenging existing systems and

ideologies. This shift towards independence, coupled

with changing attitudes towards property, state

management, and international relations, represents a

paradigmatic change within societies. For instance,

the concept of the "Soviet person" has evolved into a

more globalized identity, emphasizing equality and

free association with people worldwide.

The contemporary era presents both opportunities and

challenges stemming from globalization. While some

aspects of historical and cultural life remain distinct,

globalization fosters cultural exchange and

innovation. Embracing globalization's positive

aspects becomes imperative, as it offers opportunities

for cultural enrichment and mutual understanding.

Naturalization and the laws of historical and cultural

heritage complement each other, shaping

intergenerational relations and spiritual unity.

Spiritual unity fosters harmony within nations and

ethnic groups, underscoring the importance of

collective identity and shared values.

Philosophers throughout history have contemplated

the influence of historical and cultural heritage on

successive generations. Even within philosophical

traditions emphasizing mysticism and spirituality, the

future and its spiritual dimensions are implicitly

acknowledged. Philosophy emerges as a discipline

that harmonizes the past and the future, facilitating

free and scientific observations while establishing

connections between them.

The concept of inheritance extends beyond material

and spiritual wealth to encompass spiritual unity and

intergenerational relations. The existential existence

of nations lies in their spiritual unity, as articulated by

philosophers such as Aristotle. Succession, therefore,

arises from this spiritual unity, shaping the trajectory

of societies and cultures over time.

While artifacts and phenomena are often perceived

through external senses, underlying

ethnopsychological aspects are frequently

overlooked. Understanding the commonalities that

unite diverse cultures and societies is essential for

fostering mutual respect and appreciation in an

increasingly globalized world.

In conclusion, the study of historical and cultural

heritage necessitates a nuanced understanding that

transcends simplistic narratives. By adopting a

gradual, evolutionary approach, researchers can

uncover the complex interplay of factors shaping

intergenerational relations and societal development.

Through this lens, inheritance emerges not only as a

legacy of material and spiritual wealth but also as a

testament to spiritual unity and collective identity

across generations.

4 CONCLUSION

Failure to adhere to the principle of objectivity leads

to arbitrary interpretation, falsification, and

fabrication of the heritage. It is crucial for researchers

and scholars to maintain a rigorous commitment to

objectivity in their interpretations and analyses of

historical and cultural heritage. By doing so, they can

ensure the integrity and accuracy of their findings,

thereby contributing to the advancement of

knowledge in the field.

The principle of succession, as discussed,

emphasizes the continuity of intergenerational

relations and their significance within the historical

and cultural heritage. Through the study of

succession, researchers explore the dynamics of how

new generations relate to existing wealth and

assimilate its characteristics. This nuanced

understanding is vital for comprehending the

complexities of societal development and cultural

evolution over time. Therefore, embracing the

principle of succession facilitates a deeper

exploration of intergenerational connections and

enriches our understanding of the heritage that shapes

our collective identity.
