of economic activity with a high multiplicative effect – on the one hand, and the
so-called "closed market" – on the other.
This short historical excursion marks the question of what humanity did manage
to manage for many years of its evolution (in a well-known historical
retrospective). The question is connected with it, that there are the main spheres
of human management. First of all, the idea of human control, no matter how and
whenever it is conceived (within the framework of the above concepts or
somehow else) is objectified in three areas:
1.
in fact, a living and reproducing human body, or the aforementioned
"psychosome", or the human body (including its life cycle);
2.
society and social processes, implemented on a set of consciously or
unconsciously communicating, competing or performing joint activities, living
bodies;
3.
"natural climatic" and "landscape-geographical" human habitat, that is, the
system-accessible nature of the planet Earth at the level of the biosphere,
atmosphere and lithosphere.
To what extent does man manage these areas?
Human body
The management of the human body at the turn of the century is most advanced
and developed, but not absolutely, and represents a predominant area of medical
activity, within which medical knowledge (anatomy, histology, pathology,
pharmacology, applied and specialized subjects) is complementary, but not
competitive ). Managing processes in the human body are differentiated by
purpose (treatment of diseases, sports medicine, compensation of overloads),
methods, coverage of time periods, the technologies used (from the most ancient
to the ultra-modern) and other reasons. At the same time, today's medical
management of the body (or rather, psychosomal, because it also includes the
body of psychological and psychiatric practices, including group ones) is based on
the presumption of exclusion of social factors of the body's existence with a
general recognition of their significance for the development of this. In other
words, a doctor of non-traditional, or classical, or NTP-medicine, is not a specialist
in social sciences, because of the division of managerial and scientific work
precisely at the level of management objects. This topic could be developed and
15
tracked how such a division has developed, and how doctors have tried, to some
extent successfully, to treat "disease of society", but it is here that it makes no
sense to dwell on this. It is important to point out the fact that the factor of social
patterns leading to at least some medical and statistical significance pathologies
has always been beyond the consideration of specific anamnesis: for anamnesis
has always been significant, and still remains so, namely "lifestyle ", But not social
status, income level or type of employment. Meanwhile, the tasks of medical
management, even in the case of modern ambiguous avant-garde concepts like
"disease management" or "body augmentation", the starting point and the
ultimate goal have the tasks of social management – at least in the economic
sense.
To the management of man by himself and his body should also be attributed all
sorts of meditative, ascetic and spiritual practices associated with the
development of observation abilities, control of one's own physiology,
communicative and suggestive abilities. However, these things lie at the junction
of the first and second of the marked areas, and when you add the third of them,
you bring the person to the meta control level, which is discussed below.
Society
Historically, the issues and principles of the management of society have been
worked out to a greater extent than the management of processes in the human
body processes. Also, under human management of society, for many centuries
management itself was understood as such, since it was believed that the
management of the orders of the human body and the natural environment is the
prerogative of divine instances. And the management of society was thought of
and still is thought by many at a very deep level, as management in accordance
with some higher, divine or providential principles and commandments.
During the period of the science of the NTP period, the management of social
processes represents a predominant area of knowledge and, in part, activity, the
so-called social sciences (economics, ethics, government, political science,
sociology, demography and some others) artificially separated in scientific work
(reason which is partly indicated in the same, mentioned, section on European
technology), hampered because of this in solving complex social problems and is
still arguing about the extent to which the society manifests (which is very similar
16
to the ancient satirical dispute of the grief-doctors about "whether the patient is
more likely to be sick than dead, or vice versa"). Of course, the solution of public
problems often hangs in the air, leaving society itself at the mercy of things in the
spirit of Murphy-Parkinson-Peter.
With the emergence of cybernetics as such, and "computer science" as the
applied direction of its technological support, the problem of testing the
hypothesis about the possibility of using the appropriate tools for managing social
processes-above all, the economy (especially within the framework of the ideas of
economic cybernetics) expressed in the projects: the failed Soviet OGAS project;
promising, but ruined, Chilean Cybersyn, as well as the American wave of IT
technologies that brought the credit and banking sector of the financial sector to
a new level of development and is widely known as the "computer revolution" (in
fact, as part of the latest "computer science" experience and got its
development).
Meanwhile, whichever network of streams and processing of signals humanity
builds, it still knows two main ways of managing social processes: through money
and through the law. The understanding of this difference can be clarified through
two approaches to creating a metalanguage, and this will be discussed later.
Management of the non-human environment
The peculiarity of human interaction with this region is that the latter, at the level
of deep paradigms and even archetypes of consciousness, is the object of
precisely that of management to the least extent of all three, and is considered,
as a result of historically prevailing cognitive and activity orientations, as a source
so-called renewable and non-renewable resources for very specific practices of
managing social processes, conceived by many as immutable and unique.
Management within the biotic environment is conceived on a fairly simple
principle of food chains.
Until the era of capitalism, due to the high localization of the population exposed
to demographic cycles, this was not relevant, and in the period of its development
the issue of shortage of resources was solved primarily by expansion; At the same
time, the development of the world economic system in the period after the
Industrial Revolution went along the path of technological development, and
therefore the natural systemic nature for a long time if it was the subject of
