French term or phrase: l'element objectif
Philosophy text.

"Meme si nous partons de l'element objectif, nous constatons toujours que le paradigme est epuise."

"Even if we start from the end / goal" ... is this the sense of l'element objectif here?

Thanks for your help in advance!

Nope. I struggle to grasp the exact meaning of the sentence, despite I am French, but this is definitely not the right translation ...
