Abstract
In phenomenology, man is characterized as a being who is always already in the world, somehow understands the world and cares about its being. The history of human cultures is also the history of human understanding and interpretation of the world, in other words, the history of philosophy.
We have always needed to interpret the world, there are too many things in it that we do not understand, that we fear, or that we value and are grateful for. It is said that philosophy begins with the astonishment of existence.
One is naturally surprised that one does not know the answer to the basic questions about the nature of the beings that surround one. He is all the more surprised when he begins to search for the essence of himself or essence of Being itself.
Man begins to think, he forms an understanding of the world, which gives him a frame of reference in which he moves, acts and learns the true from the false, the probable from the unlikely, the essential from the insubstantial or the eternal from the transient. For these reasons, a person gives his interpretation of the world the appropriate authority, because it is the authority that decides his life, so he wants to and must be in dialogue.
We focus on the history of world interpretation in this text for a reason that the title of the article suggests. We are working with the hypothesis that in the 21st century a new way of interpreting the world and man is born, which is slowly becoming the frame of reference, the authority to which man is increasingly entrusting his "concern".
This interpretation of the world is called dataism.
