The author sets out current views on biological evolution: Lamarckism, Geoffreyism, Darwinism, nomogenesis, etc. They are based on ceremonial examples, and not on an analysis of the diversity of organisms and its transformations over time. The author proposes to develop the evolutionary application of A. A. Lyubishchev ( 1890–1972), believing that it could provide a solution to the age-old problems of evolutionism. According to the author, this is necessary both for the practice of overcoming the current general crisis (ecological, economic, political and sociocultural), and for constructing a picture of the world that corresponds to current knowledge.
