Abstract

The subject of this article is the complex psychological phenomenon of the unconscious and its role in human social activity. The main goal of the work can be considered as the scientific definition of the essence and structural organization of the unconscious, as well as analyzing the historical evolution of its social and humanitarian study. The author focuses on the activity and behavioral manifestations of the constituent elements of the unconscious in the life of a modern social actor. As a result of the undertaken interdisciplinary research, a conclusion is formulated about the qualitative complexity and versatility of the unconscious, its freedom from generally accepted clichŭs, stereotypes and conventions, as well as the significant heuristic potential of this layer of the human psyche. When solving non-trivial cognitive and creative tasks, it is the unconscious that can provide valuable assistance to the rational-analytical activity of a person, bringing the process of comprehending and mastering reality to the qualitatively new level.
