A concept is a certain form of thinking, a certain thought about an object. It expresses the essential features of the object.
A concept is a form that is formed by abstracted (revealed) characteristics of objects, expressed in a general way. At the same time, the specific features of the object are not indicated, in which a sign was seen that was characteristic of many others.
A concept is a form that can be used in relation to any object, process of reality, phenomenon. The idea is applicable to ideas about objects, to images of human fantasy.
Signs of objects
A concept is a construction that includes a number of components. An integral part of this form are the signs of objects. They, in essence, determine the characteristics of the concept itself. Signs can be expressed in the form of similarity or difference of objects. In the first case, the characteristics are called general. The second signs are called distinctive. Both those and other characteristics can reflect insignificant or essential features of objects. In the second case, we mean the significance of the attribute of one object over the features of another. So, for example, the presence of useful trace elements and vitamins is an essential characteristic of fruit juice. At the same time, the colorliquid is considered a secondary sign. That property, which determines the character, direction and nature of the development of an object, is considered irrelevant to its value for other features.
Examples
Enterprise concept
This term in Russian is usually used in two meanings. In the first case, there is a characteristic of a production institution, for example, a plant, factory, workshop. In the second case, the definition refers to some business conceived by someone. The term thus contains an entrepreneurial basis. It should be said that the term "enterprise" is considered somewhat vague and relatively broad. It includes not only economic and legal, but also social, technological and other components. The ambiguity of the term shows that in each case of its use it is necessary to consider the meaning in a specific context. It must be said that in the legal literature the definition of "enterprise" has an economic nature. Therefore, it is considered an economic category in the first place.
The concept of competition
This term is understood as the rivalry of economic structures, in the course of which the independent activity of each of them limits or excludes the ability to influence unilaterally the conditions for the circulation of products in the relevant market. In accordance with the Law, the legal and organizational bases that ensure the protection of competition are determined. Amongmeasures taken for this, it should be noted the suppression and prevention of monopolistic activities, restrictions by state authorities, executive structures of federal significance and other organizations and funds.

Abstraction is nothing more than a distraction, a mental step away from the subject being considered, studied or discussed, carried out in order to determine and highlight the most important, essential points, features, elements by generalization.

Universalism is a way of looking at the world and a form of thinking
Since the end of the twentieth century, the debate around universalism has intensified. Against the claims of universal knowledge made in the name of Christianity, Western rationality, feminism, critiques of racism, scholars have shown that the problems are actually much more complex. While their criticisms are valid, universalism is not only compatible with the approaches that have condemned it, but is largely, in a certain sense, implied by them
