Evald Ilyenkov is our contemporary. Thinking culture in general is set both by the state and level of development of philosophy and its mastering. Two circumstances orientate a special attitude to Ilyenkov's philosophical heritage. The need for a transition from a purely ideological understanding of social processes to a truly theoretical one is becoming more and more urgent. The number of young people prepared by the level of cultural development and the circumstances of life to become socially significant individuals is increasing. At the same time, the danger of mass information zombification is increasing. The first section of the collection is devoted to the concept of philosophy, the second to the problem of the correlation between philosophical and everyday consciousness, the third to the relevance of Ilyenkov's philosophical work, the fourth to the problem of the individual and society, the fifth to the problem of the future, and the sixth to the need to return to authentic Marxism. The collection of articles is intended for independent and creatively oriented young people who are ready to embark on the path of philosophical and theoretical comprehension of the epoch in which we find ourselves, on the path of comprehension of what and how an individual should do in these conditions.
