The Structures of Human Life
Ben G. Yacobi
Journal of Philosophy of Life Vol.14, No.2 (August 2024):54-70
Abstract
Humans are destined not only to live in uncertainty, but also to be confined in various structures that constrain them and limit their degrees of freedom. These structures, such as genome and society and concepts and the physical world, shape the human perception of reality and provide conditions for creating some sense of meaning in life that can only be realized within their boundaries. The predicament of human life is that, although it is intricately embedded in various structures, it is impossible to gain certainty or permanent foothold in any of them.
