The history of distinction between openness/closure in contemporary theory. Niklas Luhmann versus speculative realism

Abstract

The article is devoted to a study of sense of distinction between the openness and closure in contemporary theory starting with setting the concept of open system, through conceptual innovation of N. Luhmann concerning operationally closed systems, up to contemporary discussions on declarations of the movement of speculative realism. It reveals the significant aspect of the polemic of speculative realists against so called correlationism with the help of distinction between two conceptual registers in which the distinction between the openness and closure is functioning.
