Abstract: The subject of this research is the modern post-nonclassical science. The author determines some signs of the post-nonclassical paradigm (interdisciplinarity, domination of methodological anarchism, combinatorial character, oversaturation, performativity). The peculiar feature of the post-nonclassical science is that it dedicates great attention to the future. Today, the amount of projects, models, and scenarios of the future is rapidly increasing; many of them differ drastically. The increase of projects and models of the future is associated with the pragmatic orientation of the post-nonclassical science: the criterion of scientificity implies not only the concordance between the scientific research and the truth, but the leading criterion includes the practical value of the constructed model. The author’s main contribution into this work is the determination of the specific signs of the post-nonclassical science, which are yet to be thoroughly discovered in the philosophy of science. The attention is given to the introduction into the scientific discourse of the notion futuropluralism. It designates the multiplicity of projects, models, and scenarios of the future. The author evaluates the ambiguous influence of futuropluralism upon the human life. One of the means of harmonization of human being and culture is education, which encompasses the resources for human adaptation to the rapidly changing world.
