Проблема понимания исторических процессов в философии спекулятивного реализма

The paper examines the issues included in the range of problems of ontology and philosophy of history, identifies the prospects for further study of the concepts of historical development in the philosophy of speculative realism. Such a study seems possible due to the focus of speculative realism on the development of a method that can explain the movement in time of both social and non-social objects. A brief overview of the origin of various models of historical development is given. Some theoretical positions of certain areas of speculative realism are studied. The view of object-oriented ontology and new materialism on the nature of history is substantiated. Special attention is paid to the sources of origin of certain concepts of the philosophy of speculative realism and their connection with development models in object-oriented ontology and new materialism. The outlined differences in the models of historical development in object-oriented ontology and new materialism reveal the potential of research in relation to speculative realism as one of the directions of modern philosophy. Such material makes it possible to better understand the essence of the differences between certain areas of speculative realism and forms a new view on the assessment of the reasons for such differences.
