Knyazeva, Helena N. - The Future Created by Man pp. 0-0
Abstract: Review: the article describes the main ideas and key conceptions of the modern transdisciplinary field of knowledge, — studies of the future. The author clarified the meaning of a few new terms such as ‘images of the future”, “alternatively possible future”, “creation of the future” instead of just touching on such topics as fortune-telling or “co-evolution” as an art of living together and creating the future together. The author also studied the prospects and possible limits of applying methods and technologies of social constructivism to social management. “creation of the future” instead of just touching on such topics as fortune-telling or “co-evolution” as an art of living together and creating the future together.

Abramova A.S. - Atmosphere: on the essence of the phenomenon pp. 20-41

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2017.4.22908

Abstract: This article examines the issue of the study on the atmosphere and its relationship to the material culture, subjectivity and influence. This article presents a hypothesis that the atmosphere, due to its phenomenal and interdisciplinary character, might be placed between the material and immaterial, the practical and ideal, or the subject, and object. It is known that the expression "atmosphere" is widely used in the common language to describe the inseparable part of the reality. It is the reason which lies behind the difficulties with its epistemological identification and definition. This article presents the performative, aesthetic, emotional, and phenomenological methods of studying the atmosphere. These methods originate from the works of German philosophers such as Hermann Schmitz and Gernot Böhme. The relevance of this approach and the scope of its applicability are determined. The author comes to the conclusion that the atmosphere cannot be limited or precisely defined spatially or physically, meanwhile it has an ontological reality that definitely adjusts the world and each individual perception, not being a given thing, but rather a way out of a thing beyond its limits.The theoretical propositions presented within the framework of the article can be used for the detailed study on the phenomenon of the atmosphere in its humanitarian incarnation, as well as a subtler reading of cultural and social phenomena in their widest sense context. Also, the provisions of the article can be used in the field of architecture and design, urban design, retailing and many other areas of human life due to the ubiquity of this phenomenon.

Ursul A.D. - From Neolithic towards space revolution: emergence of a new means of socio-natural interaction pp. 20-34

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2020.4.32737

Abstract: The subject of this research is the ongoing drastic transformations in interactions between nature and humankind at the stage of space exploration. Earth’s material production will continue being developed, but at the same time, a completely new process will emerge, brought about by human interaction with extraterrestrial natural environment. This means predictions of taking production into outer space, especially heavy industry, which was even conceptualized by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky. Special importance in its development will be played by extraterrestrial mining industry. The author demonstrates that sustainable mining will continue to on Earth even after development of space mining, and these processes will be closely connected. Without development of space mining, it would be practically impossible to continue exploring space or ensure space security. It will be space mining that will play the defining role in formation of a new, space means of socio-natural interaction, which will define further evolution of our civilization in broad exploration of the Universe.
Keywords: socio-natural contradiction, preservation of the biosphere, Neolithic revolution, cosmonautics, space socio-natural revolution, space mining, extraterrestrial resources, method of socio-natural interaction, sustainable development, sustainable mining
Rozin, V. M. - Discursive Communications and Social Standardization pp. 20-28
Abstract: The article describes the situation in modern discursive communication. This situation is characterized with localization of communication unities and audiences and principal misunderstanding. The author of this particular article discusses the conditions of communication (including reflection of the cogitation methods, their demonstration and the author’s sharing about the main stages of his life) which lead to misunderstanding. Based on the example of fashion and realization of social norms with the opposite contents the author analyzes types of social standardization typical for modern culture. Analysis of the fashion shows that fashion is one of the modern standardization systems. It dictates certain aspects of human behavior, moreover, in fashion standards are often changed and refreshed. In modern fashion standards are defined in the process of activities of social actors sending all kinds of messages to the public environment. This is the first condition. The second condition is to create a proper social environment and readiness. The third condition is the self-organization of the environment in response to such messages. The author also says that it is necessary to distinguish such strategies of social standardization as the ‘life in two rooms’, ‘compromise’, ‘synthesis’, ‘Potemkin’s village’. In conclusion, the author says that the aforesaid characteristics of social standardization can be used to solve the problem of understanding in modern discursive communications.

Golovashina O.V. - Self-organized criticality of the actor-network theory pp. 23-31

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2017.7.21658

Abstract: The subject of the research is a comparison of actor-network theory with the theory of self-organized criticality. Despite the fact that the analyzed theories belong to different scientific fields (sociology and physics, respectively), they both represent a discourse of the non-linear world, and focus main attention not on the entities (objects), but interactions between them. The author turns attention to the individual components of the reviewed theories, as well as their function and heuristic potential as a whole. The author demonstrates that the actor-network theory alongside the theory of self-organized criticality manifest as a new language for describing the asymmetric universe, as well as underline the role of minimal impact that can lead to a maximal result. However, the self-organized criticality represents an explanatory meta-theory aimed at determination of the universal laws, which contradicts the principle of irreduction, insisted by the supporters of the actor-network theory. This article is first to pursue correlation between the two aforementioned theories.
Keywords: actor, argument, Bak, Latour, synergetics, theory of self-organized criticality, actor-network theory, pink noise, philosophy of science, new scientific paradigm
Rosin, V.M. - On clarification of the term “science” pp. 29-38
Abstract: the article is devoted to peculiarities of the term “science”, as formed in the modern age. In particular, the author views three key challenges of the time, which the natural science had to respond to. This understanding of science is opposed to the modern interpretation of science, which takes into account the crisis of technogenic civilization, the transitional time of our age, separation of general way of life and various cultures and ways of life.
Keywords: philosophy, science, natural studies, truth, efficiency, ideal object, theory, term, knowledge
Gryaznova, E. V. - Existential Status of Virtual Reality pp. 35-43
Abstract: The article contains the analysis of the researchers’ points of view on ontological status of virtual reality. The author describes the three basic approaches viewing virtual reality as the for of reality, form of existence and the form of non-existence. As a result of a critical review, the author reveals the information concept of virtual reality viewing the latter as the main way of existence of information reality. The term ‘virtual-information reality’ is the main concept and the result of dialectic relation between the two forms of information existence — active and passive ones.
Keywords: philosophy, virtual, reality, existence, non-existence, information, virtuation, virtual, ideal, virtual information.
Gorelov, A. A., Gorelova, T. A. - Religion and Modern Biological Picture of the World pp. 36-45
Abstract: The article discusses the ‘hot spots’ of interaction between modern biology and Christian doctrine – the model of evolution, genetic code and a natural scientific ground for morals. The hypothesis of evolution solves the problem of the mechanism of creation while Christianity solves the problem of its purpose. The fact that genetic code is unique proves that the creation is unique, too. Evolution of morals from natural mechanisms to a free choice of human does not abolish individual exertions of a person when transferring into the spiritual sphere.
Keywords: philosophy, biology, Christianity, evolution, creation, genetics, ethology, sociobiology, selfishness, altruism.
Manev, I. A. - Are biblical paradise and hell real? pp. 42-52
Abstract: The article gives a theoretical proof of life after physical death. For this purpose the author forms a definition that this system is alive only if it records the three specific algorithms enabling its self-recovery. One of these algorithms allows the system to consume the energy needed for it to perform. According to the hypothesis of the article, every human has an invisible biofield twin besides his own physical body. The author describes incidents when people lived for decades without any food because they were receiving energy directly from the Universe; these incidents were many times confirmed both by medicine and church. Being a live system, a biofield twin can receive energy directly from the Universe after death of a physical body, too. Since it is made up of a more delicate matter than a physical body, such a twin can live almost forever. As an example the author quotes some categorical propositions of famous Bulgarian clairvoyants Vanga and Slava Sevryukova about life after death. It is also explained how biofield formations of various types of paradise and hell are formed depending on the level of morals of the deceased person and cultural and technical level of development of a corresponding epoch in history. Biofield twins of deceased people are naturally attracted to these formations.

Asadulaev, I. K. - Universal Homeostasis (New Physical Picture of the World? Absurd of the Main Question of Philosophy) pp. 48-53
Abstract: This article is an attempt to create a new picture of the world. The author proves the existence of the ‘material homeostasis’ and describes the material and ideal as certain attributes of the material

Popov N.A. - Philosophical Analysis of the Special Theory of Relativity on the Correspondence of its Content to the Necessary Condition of its Objectivity. pp. 49-75

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2023.2.39819

EDN: IXFHBB

Abstract: The subject of this study is the special theory of relativity (SRT) by A. Einstein, the debate about which has been going on for more than a hundred years. The aim of the study is to evaluate SRT from the side of whether everything that is discussed in this theory and thus in the new, relativistic physics is possible in nature itself. At the same time, the author pays special attention to three issues: the principle of relativity, the necessary condition for the objectivity of the content of scientific theories and the Einstein style of scientific thinking, which predetermined the ideological component of SRT and all relativistic physics. But such issues as relativistic reductions of lengths and durations, the relativity of simultaneity and a single space-time do not remain without attention. The study revealed the fallacy of a long-standing and widespread opinion about the relativity of properties. The necessary condition for the objectivity of scientific theories is revealed. The natural form of expression of quantities is revealed and the non-relative nature of all natural quantities is shown. The hidden form of relativity inherent in the SRT postulate about the constancy of the speed of light in all inertial reference frames and extended in SRT to the magnitude of all lengths and durations considered in it is revealed. It is shown that such relativity is based on the dependence of the quantities on the choice of their reflection systems. It is shown that such dependence is impossible in nature itself. It is concluded that the SRT is erroneous. At the same time, the factors that served as favorable ground for the emergence and spread of this erroneous theory are listed.
Keywords: a single space-time, paradoxes of SRT, the relativity of simultaneity, Lorentz transformations, reflection systems, inertial reference systems, the principle of relativity, relativity of properties, special theory of relativity, the style of scientific thinking
Veselov, A. V. - Post Non-Classical View on the Object of Socio-Engineering Activity pp. 74-80
Abstract: The article is devoted existing points of view on the ‘object of socio-engineering activity’. The author describes genesis of views on the object of socio-engineering activity in classical, non-classical and post non-classical science. The author also considers the peculiarities of determination of the object of socio-engineering activity through the categories of ‘the natural’ and ‘the artificial’ during different stages of development of the science. The article describes the peculiarities of the object of socio-engineering activity during post non-classical stage of science development
Keywords: philosophy, socio-engineering activity, object, subject, social system, post non-classical science, natural, artificial, culture, attractor
Gerasimov G.I. - Museology as a humanitarian science pp. 113-125

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2022.4.37794

Abstract: The purpose of the article is to substantiate the main theoretical and methodological provisions of museology as a humanitarian science. Its basic concepts are formulated from idealistic positions, its methodology is defined. As an object, the ideas of a person who creates a museum reality to achieve influence on the consciousness of other people are considered. The idea of a particular museum, realized in objective reality, is defined as the subject. The subject of museology is also the process of realization of ideas – the functioning of museum reality and the process of its perception by visitors. The purpose of the museum is to make certain changes in the consciousness and attitude of another person – a visitor. The methodology of museology as a humanitarian science is based on the method of understanding, which provides comprehension of the ideas underlying the museum. Methods play a special role: communicative and construction. The goals of the museum determine its functions, the most important is the communicative one, it is she who realizes the main goal of the museum – to convey ideas and feelings from the museum employee to the visitor. The ways to achieve the goal may change with changing attitudes in society, while the museums themselves and their functions change. The main factor determining the role and social significance of museums is a person's interest in them, which manifests itself when the ideas embedded in their foundation correspond to the main ideological ideas prevailing in society and help people solve their vital problems. A museum should be relevant only when it plays an important role in the life of society. The next stage in the development of museology as a humanitarian science is its approbation in the course of solving scientific and practical tasks facing a museum employee.
Keywords: idealistic approach, functions of museology, methodology of museology, the purpose of museology, the subject of museology, object of museology, museology, humanities, worldview, museum communication
Fetisova, E. E. - Neo-Acmeism as a ‘Cultural Paradigm’ of XX Century (Cultural Memory, Esthetic Platform, Literary Groups, Transformation of ‘Semantic Poetics’) pp. 210-218

Dydrov A.A. -  Post-nonclassical science in light of human adaptation to the future

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2016.4.18244

Abstract: The subject of this research is the modern post-nonclassical science. The author determines some signs of the post-nonclassical paradigm (interdisciplinarity, domination of methodological anarchism, combinatorial character, oversaturation, performativity). The peculiar feature of the post-nonclassical science is that it dedicates great attention to the future. Today, the amount of projects, models, and scenarios of the future is rapidly increasing; many of them differ drastically. The increase of projects and models of the future is associated with the pragmatic orientation of the post-nonclassical science: the criterion of scientificity implies not only the concordance between the scientific research and the truth, but the leading criterion includes the practical value of the constructed model. The author’s main contribution into this work is the determination of the specific signs of the post-nonclassical science, which are yet to be thoroughly discovered in the philosophy of science. The attention is given to the introduction into the scientific discourse of the notion futuropluralism. It designates the multiplicity of projects, models, and scenarios of the future. The author evaluates the ambiguous influence of futuropluralism upon the human life. One of the means of harmonization of human being and culture is education, which encompasses the resources for human adaptation to the rapidly changing world.

DOI:

Abstract: The process of scientific development starts with the appearance of numerous unrelated branches of knowledge. Later these branches of knowledge usually are usually combined in larger spheres. However, as these spheres develop and extend, the tendency towards formation of narrower majors appears. On the contrary, different spheres of technology have been always developing interdependently. As a rule, breakthrough in one sphere of technology has been always accompanied with the breakthroughs in other spheres. However, today we can witness the intersection of a whole number of different waves of technological revolutions. In particular, there is the revolution that has been ongoing in the sphere of information and communication technologies since the 80’s of XXth century followed by the biotechnology revolution and the recent revolution in the sphere of nanotechnology. Attention should be also paid to the rapid development of cognitive science during the last decade. The interaction between information technologies, biotechnologies, nanotechnologies and cognitive science appears to be especially interesting and significant. The phenomenon was called the NBICS-convergence (where N means Nano-, B means Bio-, I means Info-, C means cognitive and S means socio-humanitarian studies and technologies). Convergent technologies mean Nano-, Bio-, Info-, Cogno and Social and Humanitarian technologies. The author of the article analyzes the risks and social and economic consequences of the development of these technologies such as the dramatic change in the picture of the world and research methodology. The scientific picture of the world demands us to return to the natural philosophy (philosophy of nature). Even Newton started with the natural philosophy 300 years ago. ‘Philosophy of nature’ covers both natural and humanitarian sciences. Convergent NBICS-technologies serve as an essential tool for solving this task. However, besides positive aspects NBICS-convergence is fraught with dangers and social and economic risks. Key risk factors in many ways depend on particular possibilities and scope of application of the convergent technologies.
Keywords: convergent technologies, socio-humanitarian technologies, socio-economic risks, safety, conceptual grounds of the theory of knowledge, nano-bio-info-technology, cognitive science, scientific picture of the world, suprasectoral technology, technological revolution.
Baksanskiy O.E., Korzhuev A.V. - Thomas Kuhn's Theory of 'The Structure of Scientific Revolutions' and the Crisis of the Classical Paradigm in Physics at the Turn of the XIXth and the XXth Centuries

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2015.5.13839

Abstract: The article is devoted to the crisis of physics that happened at the turn of the XIXth and the XXth centuries. The crisis is viewed in terms of the ideas suggested and proved by Thomas Kuhn in his book 'The Structure of Sientific Revolutions'. The main attention is paid to the crisis of Newtonian classical mechanics and the 'birth' of Einstein theory of relativity, the Rutherford–Bohr model of the hydrogen atom and quantum mechanics that logically proceeded therefrom.  In the course of its development natural science has reviewed the main fundamental provisions and paradigms as a result of reconsideration of previously established and adopted by the academic community logical relations such as 'cause and effect', 'reason and phenomenon', 'grounds and theory based thereupon' as well as inspirational, causal and systems determinations. The main research method used by the authors is the method of the reconstruction of cognitive representations of that epoch in terms of the modern concept of the physical picture of the world. The main conclusion is that Thomas Kuhn's theory of scientific revolutions 'highlighted' a number of important methodological peculiarities of the crisis of physics at the turn of centuries and allowed to develop particular methodology based on those peculiarities and sometimes even took a new look at them and compare them to the typical peculiarities of later 'scientific revolutions'.

Knyazeva, E. N. - The Strategy of Environmentally Safe Thinking in Terms of Jacob von Uexkull’s Unwelt Concept pp. 943-953

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2014.7.65285

Abstract: The article presents methodological grounds for developing modern strategies of environmentally safe thinking based on the theory of biology and the theory of complex adaptive systems. Being a science about interaction of living beings and their communities with the environment, today’s environmental studies go far beyond the initial borders of biology and become the core discipline in the middle of perspective inter-disciplinary synthesis of knowledge. The environmental approach appears to be quite usefully for researches of social studies and humanities. Environmentally safe action, environmentally safe mind, environmentally safe life style, knowledge and creative work, environmentally safe thought and word, environmentally safe ideas, environmentally safe communication and environmentally safe management — all these conceptual theories prove that environmentally safe thinking is becoming an important part of the humanities and social studies where it reveals possibilities for new and fresh approaches. The author of the present research article describes the meaning and importance of the term ‘Unwelt’ and the teaching about Unwelt (Umweltslehre) introduced by Jacob von Uexkull over 100 years ago, for the development of modern environmental universalism and creation of strategic imperatives of environmentally safe thinking. The concept of Unwelt as a specific world certain species and a particular living creature are adjusted to became the inter-disciplinary platform for development of the theory of environmental studies and achievement of a sensible position when discussing the sustainable development and sustainable future as well as the role of education in the global sustainable development. To develop the environmentally safe thinking, Elena Knyazeva has used the fundamental concepts of Jacob von Uexkull’s teaching about Unwelt as well as methodology of the researches of complex systems. The scientific novelty of the research is in its inter-disciplinary nature and application of theoretical biology, Uexkull’s teaching about Unwelt, theory of complex systems and newest terms of cognitive science (in particular, dynamic co-emergence and inactivism) for the development of the theory of social management and social forecasting (i.e. study of the future) and the concepts of sustainable development and environmental ethics.

Oleinikov Y.V. - The conceptual fruitlessness of social sciences

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2016.9.19957

Abstract: At the present stage, when the development of material means of transformation of the surrounding world substantiates the possibilities of the antithetical scenarios of evolution of the planetary socio-natural Universe, the extreme relevance gain the forecasting and practical functions of social sciences, which are called to adequately reflect the changes that take place in society, as well as aim at the positive solution of the new drastically new issues arising before them. The modern social sciences, remaining in the grip of the old-fashioned worldview paradigm, are unable to handle this task. Determination of the conceptual fruitlessness of social sciences should encourage the overcoming of their stagnation. The scientific, historical-philosophical, and specific-historical methods of analysis of conception and development of the Russian philosophy and social sciences in Russia, as well as methodology of paradigm shift of Thomas Kuhn, allow defining the actual reasons of the conceptual fruitlessness of socio-humanitarian sciences that take their roots in the uncritical borrowing of the Western theories of social development, organization of the Russian science and education, and their ideological bias and niche specialization of the social scientists. The sensory-visual change of the human place and role in being of the planetary socio-natural Universe justifies the crucial need for the drastic transformation of the dominant worldview paradigm, which will inevitably lead to the qualitative reformation of the entire combination of the paradigm concepts of social sciences, as well as contribute into their development in a completely new direction for the purpose of achieving the practical goal of the limitless development of a human in space and time.

Abdrashitova I.V. - Conceptual parallels of M. M. Bakhtin and M. Heidegger within the framework of the philosophy of illustration pp. 1253-1261

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2016.9.68201

Abstract: In the context of the philosophy of M. Bakhtin and M. Heidegger, this article demonstrates the conditions of establishment of the authorship responsible for its creative work and life action in general. The understanding of its own wholeness separated from everything else, as well as the presence of interconnected boundaries, suggests the presence of the author of the composition and responsible life. Authorship represents self-establishment in unity of responsibility and claiming yourself through the action. The phenomenon of the visual illustration of a book is being views as the example of presence or absence of the visible boundaries between semantic worlds. The article uses the method of intermediate analysis aimed at determination of various ways of interaction of heterogeneous creative discourses in space of their conceptual intersection; hermeneutic method of understanding and interpretation of the test, as well as the “dialogical” concept of M. M. Bakhtin for detection of the organic interlink of the visual practices with the language and style. This work is first to attempt to signify the general core of M. Bakhtin’s philosophy through the “author-interpreter-reader” link. The author introduces the notion of “fractal” into the philosophical circulation, which defines the structure of interpretation of a text. The conclusion is made that the authorship of the word and image leads to the mutual enrichments and responsible creative position; while the anonymity leads to simplification, blurring of the boundaries, and irresponsibility.

Rozin V.M. - Description of the Dispositif of Sociality

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2015.9.15314

Abstract: In his article Rozin views sociality as ultimate ontology and dispositif, i.e. heterogeneous ideal construct that is used to solve methodological problems and to explain discourses on sociality. The author of the article describes the five main 'tops' in the dispositif of sociality (i.e. independent but complementary outlines of research): the method (approach, values, framework) used by a researcher to construct sociality; description (analysis) of directed and spontaneous social transformations; characteristics of interaction between subjects of social actions including society, government, communities, individuals and personalities; structure and description of a social action allowing to direct the process of social transformation; and interpretation of sociality as an organism. The author provides a description of each 'top'. Rozin has applied the methodological approach allowing to accomplish problematisation and case study and to construct the dispositif of sociality at first approximation. General theoretical provisions are based on the analysis of cases. As a result of his research, Rozin has managed to describe sociality as ultimate ontology and to define the five 'horizons' therein. The three horizons are central, social transformations that are directed by social messages and contribute to the integral development; interaction between social action subjects who ensure the progress of these transformations; and values of a researcher as well as his approach to studying sociality.

Abstract: In his article Rozin views sociality as ultimate ontology and dispositif, i.e. heterogeneous ideal construct that is used to solve methodological problems and to explain discourses on sociality. The author of the article describes the five main 'tops' in the dispositif of sociality (i.e. independent but complementary outlines of research): the method (approach, values, framework) used by a researcher to construct sociality; description (analysis) of directed and spontaneous social transformations; characteristics of interaction between subjects of social actions including society, government, communities, individuals and personalities; structure and description of a social action allowing to direct the process of social transformation; and interpretation of sociality as an organism. The author provides a description of each 'top'.

Rudnev V. - The Problem of Truth and False in the Narrative Ontology

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2015.11.15368

Abstract: Narrative ontology is the philosophical concept the author of the article has been developing for many years. The main idea is that truth and false are considered to be illusory and replaced with the questions 'What will happen?' and 'Where is all this going to?'. Neverthetheless, the search for truth is also quite an obvious issue for narrative ontology and truth is viewed as the truth in a fictional discourse, the truth in an everyday expression, the Truth starting with the capital letter 'T', and the truth starting with the small letter 't'. In this research Rudnev also introduces his concept of the 'collapse into the truth' when a person falls into the illusion of the truth as if it were a well. The scientific novelty of the present research is caused by the fact that for the first time in the academic science Rudnev creats a new model of reality based on the ideas of narrative logic and the theory of meaning. Technically, this model is based on the mebius strip which the author thinks to be simultaneously moving in two opposite directions, i.e. towards accumulation of information ('along the life path') and accumulation of entropy ('against the life path'). In this research Rudnev has used the methods of everyday language philosophy developed by Moore, Wittgenstein, Austin and other analytical philosophers. The main conclusions of the present research are the following: 1. Truth and false are illusionary concepts created by our mind, in fact, we exist in the two parallel worlds of truth and false. 2. Narrative ontology is based on the main postulate that the meaning can be found on the mebius strip simultaneously unfolding in the opposite directions. 3. The problem of 'living against the life path' means that we live in the two opposite directions of time, towards accumulation of entropy and accumulation of information.

Ursul, A. D. - The Phenomenon of the Noosphere: Evolutionary Approach and Global Measurements pp. 1719-1738

DOI:
10.7256/2454-0757.2014.12.65967

Abstract: In his article Ursul develops a single evolutionary information concept of the noosphere formation not only as a planetary phenomenon but also as a necessary stage of the universal process of self-organization of the matter. Ursul views the sphere of mind as a would-be but not actual future of the society and interaction between the society and nature where the global human intelligence will be the priority leading the socio-natural evolution in a safe and progressive direction. Ursul describes the process of the humankind moving towards a sustainable development, information content of the phenomenon of noosphere and formation of the core of the phenomenon, the collective noospheric intelligence. Ursul underlines that Vladimir Vernadsky developed his teaching about the noosphere based on the concept which unites globalism and the ideas of the noosphere formation into one integrated world view. Ursul views noospherogenesis as the main method and form of the human survival and the main goal of the contemporary and future civilization development including the transfer to the global sustainability, creation of the information-based civilization, globalization and other positive processes of the global development. The researcher also analyzes the new mega-trends of noospherogenesis in science, education, culture and governance considering the achievements of contemporary researches and predicated prospects of the future evolution of the world civilization. In his research Ursul has used the evolutionary (mostly universal evolutionary) approach and methods of global researches as well as the information-based approach and development criterion. The researcher also shows that within the framework of the research of the future, noospheric-futurological approach may dramatically change traditional approaches and research methods. Ursul also offers an opinion that the humankind also starts to turn into a single integrated civilization of the noosphere and this process is accompanied with the development of a totally new safe socio-natural and co-evolutionary mean of interaction. Ursul also talks about the social and socio-natural evolution creating opportunities for the development of the sphere of mind not only in the biosphere. As a future global process, noospherogenesis is a necessary step of the global evolution which, according to Ursul, will be realized in socio-natural and socio-cultural forms, first on Earth and then in the Universe.
