演化的时间观

The Evolving Outlook of Time

本文对现代物理学中提出的内部时间进行了哲学分析,指出由内部时间表征的演化时间既是物质存在的基本形式又是物质演化的内在尺度。其本体论意义在于时间、空间、物质的内在统一是以演化为基础的,世界统一于物质,物质统一于演化,世界就是演化着的物质世界;其认识论意义在于认识的过程是在不可逆的复制和双重建构中进行的,用演化的时间看认识,认识不过是演化着的主——客相互作用的系统;其方法论意义在于科学应该注意和重视对复杂性、不可逆性的研究,在此基础上创立新的科学概念系统、符号系统,以揭示现实演化着的世界的本质及其发展、变化的规律。

The internal time in modern physics is analyzed philosophically in the paper and it is pointed out that the evolving time represented by internal time, is both a form of matter existence and the internal measure of matter evolution. The sense of ontology of time is that the internal unification of time, space and matter is based upon evolution. The nature is unified within matter while the matter is unified by evolution. The nature is a world of evolving matter. The sense of epistemology of time is that it can repress the characteristics of subject and object which are approaching and harmonizing each other in the process of their interaction. The cognition is only the interaction of evolving subject and object. The sense of methodology of time lies in that the science should face the irreversibly evolving nature to construct the scientific theory, the scientific descriptions, the time dimensions--in which past, present and future can be distinguished.
