IS TIME AN ILLUSION?

The article is included in the discussion that has unfolded in the scientific community about the reality or non-reality of time. The grounds and reasons for posing the problem of the unreality of time are revealed. The multifaceted nature of the problem is shown - the interweaving of physical, social, philosophical components. The idea of the inevitability of the formation of a non-traditional interpretation of time in the light of new scientific and philosophical ideas is supported. The idea of the illusion of time is usually related to the interpretation of time in quantum physics. Naturally, the question arises: is time universal or local, and what is the status of physical time in philosophical teachings about time. It is shown that a number of arguments are put forward in favor of the idea of the unreality of time, the fact of belief in the reality of time, the lowering of the status of the concept of time in theoretical physics, the development of the relational paradigm in physics, doubts about the fundamental position about the relationship between time and change. The idea of polytemporality and contextuality of time in society is proposed. It is shown that within the framework of the dynamic concept of time there is no possibility of local unreal time.
