The purpose of the article is to substantiate the methodological potential of modern holism and its development under the influence of synergetic ideas. Methodologically, the article is based on the analysis of Goethe’s subject thinking.

Application of research results in the formation of the basic system of the nanotechnology philosophical foundations contributes to their inclusion in the general scientific picture of the world, worldview and human culture.
