Imagination and contingency in the non-classical ontology of constructivism

The article analyses relationship of the constructivist ontology development based on the phenomenological project and the system analysis as a basis of cognition of sociocultural reality in non-classical philosophy. The author focuses on the role of imagination in the inclusion of the future as a mode of temporality in the constitution of a current, expressed in the present, reality of consciousness experience at the individual and collective levels. System as an "ontological substantive" in its evolution aims to consolidate the mechanism of self-maintenance and self-expression associated with self-reference as a self-describing and positing of own complete image (Self) included in the current present.
