Metamonism and Evolution: Evolutionary Dead Ends as Collapse of Systemic Differentiation Abstract

This article examines biological evolution through the lens of metamonism—an interdisciplinary framework based on processual ontology. Based on the axiom of the prohibition of indifference, it is shown that the evolutionary process is viable only as long as dynamic difference (diff) between species and environment is preserved. It is argued that the cessation of differentiation and fixation of species traits outside the context of the environment (the common Monos) transforms a species into "biological Logos," which inevitably leads to its extinction as a state of final indifference.
