Abstract
The object of this study is the principle of least action (PLA) taken in the dialectical unity of various aspects of its manifestation in philosophy and science. It also reveals the functional status of the PLA in working out and implementing the sustainable development strategy. The methodological basis of the study contains the ideas of classical philosophy, the ideas of L. Wittgenstein, the theoretical provisions of the French epistemological tradition, and the postmodern principles of J. Derrida’s deconstruction theory. The article substantiates the methodological significance of the PLA for fundamental ontology, for developing promising strategies of evolutionary adaptation, and for socio-ecological optimization.
