The Arrow of Time and Meaning [PDF]
Foundations of Science, 2006 All the attempts to find the justification of the privileged evolution of phenomena exclusively in the external world need to refer to the inescapable fact that we are living in such an asymmetric universe. This leads us to look for the origin of the “arrow of time” in the relationship between the subject and the world.

We argue that if everything there is in the world is physical, then time has an objective direction. If the fundamental equations of motion are time reversal invariant we show that the direction of time cannot be explained by anything else in physics (e.g. the direction of processes in time) and therefore must be added to physics. We further argue that

IT is widely believed that all irreversible mechanical processes involve an increase of entropy, and that ‘classical’ (that is, non-statistical) mechanics, of continuous media as well as of particles, can describe physical processes only in so far as they are reversible in time1. This means that a film taken of a classical process should be reversible,

We are commemorating the work of a great scientist — Josef Loschmidt. Inevitably, we look at his achievements through modern eyes. My aim will not only be to look at one of his contributions, the so-called Loschmidt paradox, from my own point of view, inevitably involving more recent knowledge, but also to draw attention to the philosophical background
