Time as the Engine of Coherence: A Philosophical Framework for Understanding Order, Causality, and the Organization of Reality

This paper proposes a new philosophical framework in which time is understood as an active organizing principle rather than a passive dimension. It argues that time functions as an “engine of coherence,” enabling the emergence of order, causality, memory, and stability by structuring relationships, synchronizing interactions, and allowing patterns to persist across successive moments. The work reframes reality as a dynamic process of relational coherence unfolding through temporal flow.
