Intellectual Potential

The new era in which we find ourselves certainly has many challenges but as well many chances. By entering in, the era of knowledge, we are conditioned to radically change the status of human potential and with that the strategies of relationship towards homo sapiens (reasonable man) as potential. In the knowledge era, man is no longer an extended hand of machines. In order to survive in the game with modern technical-technological development trends, it is inevitable for him to take over its naturally given uncompetitive role of unique thoughtful being with unlimited intellectual potential and inevitable in the process of creating the new value. Constant development, changes conditioned by automation, globalization, informatization, for a "reasonable man" can be an unprecedented threat or a civilizational chance to discover, develop, materialize his hidden intellectual potential. In the conditions of the new economy, intellectual potential takes on not only a leading but a key role. Modern research shows that inventiveness and innovation create a leverage effect, directing the intellectual potential to create new high-tech achievements. There are more and more companies which establish the value of its service or product precisely on the discovery, development, materialization of intellectual potential as an unlimited competitive resource. The subject of this paper is to show the importance of research and finding new approaches, new tools, new methods for detection, development, materialization of unlimited intellectual potential of the "thinking man". The goal of this paper is to raise awareness of the chance, which humanity has not had up until now, in the domain of natural resource from the role of "talking tool" or "extended machine hand" to take on the role of "unique, thinking, creative, inventive, unlimited, potential". In this paper, we also only superficially touched on possible modern methods for discovering, developing, materialization of human potential, such as: business consulting, business coaching, business mentoring.

Creativity, the integrative function of the psyche of Homo sapiens (HS), which arose about 50,000 years ago, allowed HS to project the image of the goal (IG), transformed into a “symbol,” into the external environment. The projection constructs of the psyche have become autonomous fragments of the environment in the HS perception, not being its derivatives. Objective reality, perceived by HS, has acquired non-inherent properties: a mental product of the psyche that integrates the virtual and real components of the environment. In other words, the role of HS has evolved over the last 10,000 years, since the beginning of the agrarian revolution: from (1) a dependent subject controlled by external forces in an animated world to (2) “the crown of God's creation” in “theism” and, (3) to the status "Higher power" during the period, in which "God is Dead." Initially, HS exists in an incompletely real environment, with an increasing component of virtuality. With symbolic virtual content, HS supplemented or duplicated the entire surrounding world, creating a two-component habitat (virtual and real). The emergence and development of conceptual thinking (ConceptT) led to a partial "devirtualization" of the environment, the removal of restrictions on scientific knowledge, the rapid growth of technology and social dynamics. The result of technological development was, in the recent past, a temporary resolution of the primary frustration: the establishment of the current equilibrium in the relationships with the regulatory "dissociated symbol"—the virtual "information universe” (IU). The IU, defining as the interference of "media" with the "information body" of the Internet, we consider as a unified information space, integrated with reality and in total constituting the HS habitat. Clip thinking (ClipT), qualitatively different from ConceptT, is a new operating system of the psyche, a moderator of adaptation to a new, virtualized environment. A technological derivative of mental activity HS—the IU—without the participation of conscious forms of mental activity, transforms the algorithms of thinking, i.e. formats the psyche as a whole with adaptation to qualitative and quantitative changes in the virtual component of the environment, and to the perspectives on the development of technologies during the singularity.

Role Of Religion

Datafication, the technological development that emerged out of computerization and global interconnectedness, has spawned new forms of societal self-observations. In the present article I turn to the example of Open Data web portals – specialized websites that make large amounts of governmental datasets publicly available – to show how they relate to the status quo of social research on functional differentiation. For my analysis of the Chilean Portal de Datos Públicos I developed a method to link metadata categories from the web portal to a hard-core list of ten function systems. My results confirm literature, which finds economized or politicized forms of societal self-description. Moreover the results are in line with studies that show the vanishing role of religion. Interestingly, my study finds health to be of high importance – I might even speak of a “healthized” self-observation – which I argue is at odds with a negligible representation of the function system “sport” within the self-observation. For future interfunctional social research in the time of datafication, I recommend sharpening the empirical approach by exploring emerging text-as-data methods.

The article is devoted to the problems of the development of the innovative potential of regional economic systems, which determines the vector and the intensity rate of the formation of competitive goods, services and innovation environment. The object of the study is the factors of regional influence on the change in the innovation potential. The purpose of the study is to determine the role of the human factor in the system of transforming and transforming innovative potential as a driving force of socio-economic development. The research objectives are related to the increasing importance of human capital in solving complex strategic problems. The main research methods: system and situational approaches, analysis of statistics on the development of the intellectual potential index. Determining the conditions for the favourable development of the innovation process of the economic system was carried out on the basis of determining the factors that contribute to the effective development of innovations, conditionally divided into transformational and transactional. The greatest importance in this study is given to intangible assets created as a result of human intellectual activity: the foundations of intellectual potential. The active realization of intellectual potential in various socio-economic spheres creates opportunities for regional development, intensification and innovative progress. The analysis of intellectual activity was carried out on the basis of indicators of the Southern Federal District, as a result, a weak level of development and influence on the domestic product was established. Despite a sufficient number of favorable factors, the district can provide high growth rates with the participation of state support for human potential. The technical factor that affects the development of the innovative potential of the economic system is situationally manifested in high-tech industries that depend on the modernization of industry elements, which may differ in the rate of re-equipment and determine the directions of integration of the regions of the district in different ways. The results of the innovation process and the success of their integration into the real sector of the economy determine the effectiveness of digitalization of various types of economic activities and the development of more flexible innovative approaches

In recent years artificial intelligence has entered a new era, which gives rise to many hopes for powerful states such as the United States and China. In this paper, we analyze the importance and role of artificial intelligence in technological development in each of the two countries on the one hand, and its influence on China-American relations in terms of technological and geopolitical conflict. To get the right results, we rely on a literature review of dozens of articles published on the phenomenon in order to compare the power of artificial intelligence between the United States and China where we found that the US still has technological strength, especially in the field of artificial intelligence, but we can say that a large force is beginning pose a threat for it which is China that has great technological capabilities so, we can say that the United States should work more in this field. Also, we found that artificial intelligence has a primary goal in both countries, it helps China to achieve its ambitions to be the leader of the world, and this intelligence, on the other hand, provides protection and security to the United States. This paper is divided into three sections. The first section focuses on the importance of artificial intelligence in achieving China’s ambitions, the second section explains the role of artificial intelligence in the US protection service, and the third section describes the technological and geopolitical conflict resulting from the competition in artificial intelligence between these two countries. Keywords: Artificial intelligence, United States, China, Conflict, leader.

The development of the intellectual potential of an individual, as a complex characteristic of his intellectual, professional and creative capabilities, is emphasized in the youth policy state strategies of Russia and becomes the leading goal of the state program "Scientific and Technological Development of the Russian Federation". This makes it necessary to develop and implement innovative forms of training, productive educational models for training engineering personnel focused on solving innovative problems in the context of design and research activities, creating high-tech startups that form soft-skills and hard-skills competencies. In the context of our research, the directions of the development of the intellectual potential of engineering university students are determined: the application of the concept of the STEM approach in the context of the implementation of additional educational programs, which allows modeling students scientific, design and research activities based on the integration of consistency principles, variability, problem ranges, creativity, co-creation; implementation of team innovative technological projects involving the integration of research, scientific, practical-applied, creative, analytical and constructive skills of students; creation of a special information environment that allows to identify talented students focused on high-quality results, testing real scientific results at various venues, competitions, seminars, creating unique technological startups and thereby creating the basis for further successful professionalization of students.

The Arab Spring

ICTs are slowly being acknowledged as effective tools for political mobilisation in the information age. Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign and the Arab Spring are typical examples of how ICTs can foster political change in the face of challenges that were considered insurmountable before the information age. The secrets behind such success stories are not readily available to local change leaders at a time when authoritarian states are devising ways of entrenching the status quo in the information age. This emphasises the need to inform activists about the relevance of updating pre-information age models in order to address the challenges of politics in the information age. It also calls for more academic analysis on how to conceptualise the role of earlier political models in the information age. This chapter presents a systematic approach for renewing traditional political models to the e-world by proposing how to update Alinsky's (1971) community organising model used by Obama 2008 campaign. The relevance of this chapter to a book on politics in the information age is that it prepares strategists and scholars to update their tried and tested strategies to a new era as Obama did.

To give a comprehensive account of the development of analytical psychology in the Chinese mainland, this article reviews the developmental history, analyses the status quo and features and identifies some contemporary problems. Analytical psychology undergone three periods in China: Exploration (from 1961 to 1993), Development (from 1994 to 2019), and New Era (from 2019 till now). Currently, there are two journals about analytical psychology in China, Analytical Psychology and Sandplay Therapy. However, there are also several problems, including mutual problems all over the world and unique problems in China. There is still a long way to go. Heyong Shen and his team lead the development of analytical psychology in China. The team combines Jungian psychology and Freudian psychoanalysis with Chinese culture and proposed the concept ‘psychology of the Heart’, which emphasizes the fundamental role of the Heart.

In modern conditions, the role of international industrial cooperation is increasing. Global industrial cooperation goes beyond normal interstate trade, direct cooperative link, and occupational production, foreign investment cooperation, and joint scientific and technical activities. International technological exchange, which serves as the dissemination of scientific and technological progress, also affects the effectiveness of the entire cycle of work, from development to commercial application. The forms of technology swapping are determined by the characteristics of the transferred technology and the characteristics of the subjects of the transfer process. The recipient of a technology or technologically intensive product gets the opportunity to assimilate most of the partner's scientific and technological experience. The article researches certain aspects of the technological development of Asian countries such as Singapore and China, whose experience in the area of successful international technological exchange is interesting to Kazakhstan and other countries that seek to actively integrate into global technological processes. The article assesses the existing systems for supporting innovations and stimulating high-tech industries in Kazakhstan. The article also provides an expert opinion of a foreign expert, Deputy Director of the Singapore organization the Action Community for Entrepreneurship, Brian Patrick Tan, as well as representatives of the venture Fund “Qaz Tech Venture” on the potential of integrating Kazakhstan into the international scientific and technical space.

This essay considers the role that Copts played in the Arab Spring revolution in Egypt and the way in which the political changes of the time affected Coptic interest representation in the Egyptian state. Copts, the indigenous Christians of Egypt, were eager participants in the protests that brought down former president Hosni Mubarak. However, their enthusiasm for a new era was dampened by the inability of lay Coptic movements to challenge the status quo in a way favorable to Coptic interests. Dissent against the management of security under the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (scaf) led Copts toward cautious optimism when Muhammad Morsi was elected president in 2012. However, the transition to democracy in Egypt as laid out by the Islamist government ultimately squandered the goodwill of Egyptian Christians and contributed to their disillusionment with the democratic idea. The result has been the further polarization of Egyptian society in ways which have deepened cleavages between Christians and the Islamist movement and rendered more ambiguous the role of the church and lay movements in representing Coptic interests.

The Relationship

This review argues that the role of technology in business and society debates has predominantly been examined from the limited, narrow perspective of technology as instrumental, and that two additional but relatively neglected perspectives are important: technology as value-laden and technology as relationally agentic. Technology has always been part of the relationship between business and society, for better and worse. However, as technological development is frequently advanced as a solution to many pressing societal problems and grand challenges, it is imperative that technology is understood and analyzed in a more nuanced, critical, and comprehensive way. The two additional perspectives invite a broader research agenda, one that includes questions, such as “Which values and whose interests has technology come to emulate?”; “How do these values and interests play out in stabilizing the status quo?”; and, importantly, “How can it be contested, disrupted, and changed?” Any research that endorses green, sustainable, environmental, or climate mitigating technologies potentially contributes to maintaining the very thing that it seeks to change if questions such as these are not being addressed.
