Meillassoux's Criticism of Heidegger:From the Perspective of Teleology
After Hegel,the teleological system of philosophy seems to have become a historical relic.Still,we can discover a relatively weak teleological framework in the philosophy of the 20th century.In Being and Time,Heidegger constructs a teleological world of meanings around the existence of Dasein,which,at the same time,is faced with constant invasions and attacks from the factual world,just as Heidegger convincingly argued.Such an impact from factiality upon facticity has become a central topic for French philosophers since that time.The famous contemporary French philosopher Meillassoux revived Heidegger's theme in his masterpiece After Finitude,carrying forward the principle of factiality.From this,shall we witness the fate of teleological philosophy in contemporary era.
