Abstract
Kutyrev Vladimir Aleksandrovich is known as a social philosopher, left-wing conservative, supporter of controlled progress, critic of dehumanization. The article analyses V. A. Kutyrev’s new monograph “The Owl of Minerva Flies at Dusk” issued in 2018. The publication tackles the following issues: threats of technocratic development, prospects for humanism, limits of technology, substitution of existence by consumerism. Kutyrev not only resists post-human illusion, he hopes that Russia will keep the tradition and become the mainstay of being. The research task is as follows: to review the recently published book of the authoritative Soviet-Russian archaeo-avant-gardist. The originality of the study lies in the fact that Kutyrev’s ideas are analysed not as alarmist chants but within the framework of sustainable development, philosophy of everyday life.
