Development And Management

There are three main approaches in the development of mankind. These approaches encompass all anthropogenic activities and are the basis of paradigm change. The transition from one paradigm to another (from deterministic to stochastic and to the third synergetic paradigm) the certain patterns were identified. To consider the differences between these three paradigms the authors introduced the philosophical categories of certainty - uncertainty, predictability - unpredictability. Currently, we are witnessing the birth of the third, synergetic paradigm, which is based on the design of the origin, formation, development and change (evolution) of complex open nonlinear non-equilibrium systems. The theory of self-organization claims to be interdisciplinary and universality, including in the sphere of creation a modern social picture of the world. Synergetics is dealing with collective and mass processes, with complex social systems and it is the most rational key to solving this problem. The Humanity, creating a science, did constantly a system synthesis, specifying in any science, the most important variables and the laws by which these variables are developing. All the laws of physics, chemistry were determined by such rules. Synergetics is now trying to say, how to do it in all Sciences. This review presents the basic principles of the theory of chaos and self-organization and main scientific areas of synergetics. The basics of application of synergetic methodology to practitioners of strategic planning, forecasting, forsythe and modeling were analyzed. The authors presented on the principles of synergetics the basic staged scenarios for the development and management of complex systems. The coping and management of social chaos and interdisciplinary modeling were classified.

Since the release of the well-known work of W. Weaver «Science and Complexity» (1948) only V.S. Stepin had taken some significant efforts to develop the doctrine of the three types of systems in nature. In this case, the main achievements of V.S. Stepin in postnonclassic reduced to two fundamental results: violation of the basic principle of T. Kuhn´s contradictions when changing paradigms (V.S. Stepin shows the effect of «investments», when complex systems operate classical and nonclassical rationality simultaneously) and repeated emphasis on the possibility of «change ... the probability of emerging of other (the system) conditions». At the same time, V.S. Stepin in his last works (monographs) identified a particular role of self-organization and self-development in case of complex biosocial systems. All this in theory of chaos and self-organization form 5 basic principles of functioning of complexity (or systems of the third type - STT). In fact, V.S. Stepin laid the foundation for the future (new) philosophy and developed now theory of chaos and self-organization in which humanity moved into the area of uncertainty of living (social in particular) systems completely. However, the rationality of the third type (postnonclassic) requires corrections and additions, as shown in a number of monographs of V.S. Stepin.

This paper presents a comparison of two psychoanalytic models of how human beings learn to use their mental capacities to know meaningfully about the world. The first, Fonagy's model of mentalization, is concerned with the development of a self capable of reflecting upon its own and others' mental states, based on feelings, thoughts, intentions, and desires. The other, Bion's model of thinking, is about the way thoughts are dealt with by babies, facilitating the construction of a thinking apparatus within a framework of primitive ways of communication between mother and baby. The theories are compared along three axes: (a) an axis of the theoretical and philosophical backgrounds of the models; (b) an axis of the kind of evidence that supports them; and (c) the third axis of the technical implications of the ideas of each model. It is concluded that, although the models belong to different theoretical and epistemological traditions and are supported by different sorts of evidence, they may be located along the same developmental line using an intersubjective framework that maintains tension between the intersubjective and the intrapsychic domains of the mind.

Do we live in an intrinsically rent and warring world? or is the schism only apparent, veiling a fundamental and all-pervasive harmony? or is the universe of such a nature as to admit of a conflict which, though it has sprung up within it, is not of it?These three possibilities offer themselves to the mind that is trying to push through the world of appearances into the world of reality. The first is the conclusion of Dualism. The second is the conclusion of Monism. The third is an undifferentiated, but long prevalent and well-grounded, conviction, sometimes wrongly identified with dualism, sometimes with monism, but in reality independent of both. For want of a better term we may call it the principle of Duality.

This book is a continuation of the lively debate launched in Dall'oggetto estetico all'oggetto artistico which the same editors published with Firenze University Press. The argument of the book is the organic link connecting the two thematic axes that define the ambit of aesthetics: the theory of perception and reflection on the arts. The apparent tautology of the title is intended to stress how the interpenetration of perception and work of art is structural and organic, thus calling up the theoretical urgency of this problem for an effective understanding of the dynamics of the sense of art as a "symbolic form" in which the relation between the mind and the world is embodied in an exemplary manner. The book is divided into three sections. The first presents nuclei of reflection emerging from unconventional contemporary perspectives. The second addresses various angles of the theory of perception. Finally, the third part explores several cases in which contemporary artists have tackled the link between expressive practice and the articulation of perception.

Knowledge of predictive relations is a core aspect of learning. Beyond individual relations, we also represent intuitive theories of the world, which include interrelated sets of relations. We asked whether individual predictive relations learned incidentally in the same context become automatically associatively bound and whether they influence later learning. Participants performed a cover task while watching three sequences of events. Each sequence contained the same set of events, but differed in how the events related to each other. The first two sequences each had two strong predictive relations (R1 & R2, and R3 & R4). The third contained either a consistent pairing of relations (R1 & R2) or an inconsistent pairing (R1 & R3). We found that participants’ learning of the individual relations in the third sequence was affected by pairing consistency, suggesting the mind associates relations to each other as part of the intrinsic way it learns about the world. This was despite participants’ minimal ability to verbally describe most of the relations they had learned. Thus, participants spontaneously developed the expectation that pairs of relations should cohere, and this affected their ability to learn new evidence. Such associative binding of relational information may help us build intuitive theories.

Tadeusz Czeżowski’s Ethics towards New Media Culture This paper seeks to answer the question whether Tadeusz Czeżowski’s concept of ethics and value theory can be useful in a culture whose shape is largely determined by new media. On the basis of the collected arguments, it is argued that certain elements of Czeżowski’s system may help to solve some problems arising in this context. The first is the imbalance between real and virtual experience. An ontological exercise is proposed here. The second is setting the mind on permanent, mediated communication. Axiological exercises are the remedy. The third problem is the loss of holistic experience of self and the world. Philosophical exercises based on general concepts may be helpful here.

Single Field

Synergetics is a science of self-organization of complex systems - biogeocoenosis, social systems, consciousness, human thinking, information and technology complexes. Synergetics seeks to create a "single field" of interdisciplinary communication, to form the principles of a scientific picture of the world. The unevenness of complex systems under certain conditions gives rise to the self-organization of both natural and social processes. As a doctrine of self-development, synergetics rebuilds contemporary worldview and thinking, through which one can understand the instability, nonlinearity, and openness of the modern world in its uniqueness and integrity.

The essays in this volume are concerned with the question of how we are to understand the foundations of our capacity to know and understand others. While the essays address issues that have long puzzled philosophers, they also engage with more contemporary issues generated by recent empirical work in the cognitive sciences. The first two essays focus on more general concerns. They tease out various questions that have been asked in connection with others, and consider how they may be thought to be related to one another. The three chapters that follow explore some of the issues that arise when one examines questions concerning others in the light of evidence from the empirical sciences. One chapter looks at the claim that there is an asymmetry between the way in which we know our own mind and the ways in which we know other minds, another looks at when and how human infants come to know that others have minds, and the third looks at the role played by context in our acquiring knowledge of others. The third group of chapters examines the suggestion, popular in more recent times, that one comes to know the mind of others in much the same way that one comes to know about the world of bodies—through perception. The volume ends with a chapter that considers the impact on our thinking about morality of a certain way of understanding our relations to others. All the essays in this volume are newly written by internationally renowned researchers and are designed to advance our understanding of ourselves as social creatures.

The traditions of Confucianism, Daoism, and their later adoption of and adaptation by Buddhism envisioned a world that, re-described in modern parlance, is composed of shifting, fractal dimensions in which emergence can happen along turbulent boundaries of attractors where tensions arise between opposites. For the ancients, these ways of thinking invoked nascent principles of our current understanding of deterministic chaos; they glimpsed self-organization proceeding toward complexity, and human beings moving through the world with wuwei, an adept sense of participation. This participatory ethos can be situated on a cultural spectrum of behavior that extends between integrity (individuality) and intimacy (sociality, cooperation). An approach to life that empathizes the intimacy portion of the spectrum leads to the highest expression of the self in Confucian, Daoist, and Buddhist environments where an effortless expertise, ziran, may be achieved, arising from unforced participation within a particular sector or system of the world. The individual who attains such a state is recognized as a sage. Such a person is a cooperator in the broadest sense, very often an innovator and a catalyst, and, in social systems, a constructive leader. Sagely behavior is proposed as the supreme achievement of biotic and cultural evolution.
