The Unicist Research closed the gap between macro and micro behaviour. The unicist complexity research approach implies dealing with applications while researching, which requires that the lapse of research time be very long in order to achieve fully accurate predicted results before validating a hypothesis.

As it has been done every year since its foundation, The Unicist Research Institute synthesized this January the researches that had been finished until that time. After 38 years, 2013/2014, can be considered the year in which the integration of macro and micro behavior could be confirmed.

The gap between the macro and the micro cosmos has been and is still a problem that theoretical physicists are closing. The integration of the field of macro and micro behavior, that has been solved by Peter Belohlavek, is homologous. It allows integrating social behavior with individual behavior, making human complex adaptive systems manageable.

The publication of Conceptual Economics, Conceptual Anthropology and Conceptual Psychology are some of the milestones of this process that included the researches developed in 2013-2014 (see image above).

Unicist ontology to apprehend the nature of an object

June 29, 2012 in The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Objects / Unicist Ontology of Evolution tagged Evolution of societies / Future Scenarios / Intelligent Systems / Theory of evolution / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Ontology of Evolution / Unicist Standard / Unicist Thinking by Peter Belohlavek

The unicist ontology defines the nature of entities. It defines their purpose, their active function and their energy conservation function. These three elements are integrated in their oneness following the complementation and supplementation laws.

It is a structural functionalist approach that belongs to the field of complexity science and emulates the ontogenetic intelligence of nature.

An example is the unicist ontology of a person. The apprehension of this entity is based on:

1) The active function, the appearances, can be observed.

2) The energy conservation function, the doings, can be perceived.

3) The purpose, the being, needs to be intuited.

4) Their integration in their oneness requires using double dialectical thinking within a reflection process.

Some of these concepts are counterintuitive for adults. For example that appearance is an active function and that doings cannot be observed but only perceived. That is why humbleness and experiencing reality is basic to avoid conflicts with counterintuitive concepts.

To apprehend the nature of an entity it is necessary to have a preexisting sound knowledge, having experienced it to start a reflection process. The final step is the development of the necessary destructive and non-destructive tests until the definition has demonstrated that it suffices to forecast the evolution of the entity.

2012, the Year of the Possible

December 28, 2011 in The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Ontology / Unicist Ontology of Evolution tagged Unicist Evolutionary Approach by Unicist Press Committee

This year The Unicist Research Institute has celebrated the 35th anniversary with the most fruitful research effort in their history having finished more than 600 researches including some of them than demanded far more than 20 years (consciousness, unified field of human adaptive systems, etc). They made 600 new aspects in the field of individual, institutional and social fields become possible.

The unicist approach is based on finding out what is possible in order to focus on it. The unicist approach deals with the “possible”, defined as a noun. It has to be considered that a possibility is a conditional situation while the “possible” is an assertive fact.

What is possible sustains success. Everything that is possible can be achieved. But this has a problem: while it provides the security of what can be done, it demands the freedom of assuming the responsibility for doing it.

The crises in the world happen because something was not “possible” but this situation was disregarded. Failures are always a consequence of someone trying to do something impossible or of something possible that was not done because people did not assume the responsibility.

That is why The Unicist Research Institute promotes:

What are Ontogenetic Maps?

October 6, 2011 in The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Ontogenetic Maps / Unicist Ontology of Evolution / Unicist Standard / Unicist Strategy / Unicist Tweetinar tagged Unicist Evolutionary Approach by Peter Belohlavek

The integration of the ontogenetic intelligence of nature, the anthropological invariables and human ontointelligence made the development of the ontogenetic maps possible.

These ontogenetic maps are timeless meaning that they are valid as long as the function they represent exists.

For example, the ontogenetic map of a lifeboat exists and remains unchanged as long as its function exists. Technologies change, cultural contexts are different but the ontogenetic map of the lifeboat remains the same.

Ontogenetic maps are cross-cultural because the integration of the ontogenetic intelligence of nature with the anthropological (cultural) invariables defines the nature of a function in synthetic language.

On the one hand, this makes the unicist ontological structures self-evident in any culture and, on the other hand, it makes the ontological algorithms, that define the ontogenetic maps, be perceived as logical because they follow the natural way something needs to be developed.

How does human double dialectical behavior work?

September 22, 2011 in The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Ontology / Unicist Ontology of Evolution / Unicist Process Management / Unicist Standard / Unicist Strategy / Unicist Tweetinar tagged Unicist Evolutionary Approach by Peter Belohlavek

The Unicist Dialectics allows dealing with human adaptive systems managing the integration of their double dialectical behavior.

With this double dialectical approach (purpose – active function, purpose – energy conservation function) one can understand the structure of an adaptive system and its evolution.

Unicist Dialectics is based on the emulation of adaptive systems, emulating the ontogenetic intelligence of nature (purpose, active principle, energy conservation principle).

Its application to human adaptive systems made the emulation of individual, institutional and social evolution possible.

To approach a reality integrated by three elements with a dualistic mind it is necessary to consider it as a dualistic integration of binary elements. To perceive dialectics it is necessary to have a high abstraction capacity.

Those who do not have the abstraction capacity consider the dialectical behavior based on observable facts of reality. They cannot differentiate essential correlations from cause-effect relations.

Individuals who have the necessary functional intelligence and the will to add value to an environment, and are able to see the double dialectics, develop two different actions to ensure results: on the one hand, they impulse action and on the other hand, they develop actions to inhibit entropy.

Individuals who approach reality using unicist thinking define strategies based on taxonomies and planed actions to influence the environment.

The lack of hope triggers social cathartic conflicts

August 14, 2011 in The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Object driven Technologies / Unicist Ontology / Unicist Ontology of Evolution / Unicist Standard / Unicist Strategy / Unicist Tweetinar tagged Unicist Evolutionary Approach by Peter Belohlavek

The conflicts of the UK, Syria, Egypt and Spain are based on the lack of hope installed in their cultures or subcultures. Social explosions are based on explosive/implosive situations that include necessarily the lack of hope.

If the recent history of South America is revised, it will be seen that the lack of hope provided the explosive/implosive situation for guerrilla.

What is hope in the individual’s context?

Hope is a personal feeling that can be externally stimulated or inhibited. Hope implies having a vision of the future that makes it worth living.

What installs hope in the mind of individuals is their capacity to have an active role in the environment to make the future happen. It implies that individuals are driven by expectancies and are trustful and credible in the environment they live in.

Individuals’ transcendence is the energy conservation function of hope. It complements the vision of the future providing a place to be achieved.

Transcendence has supernatural and natural aspects. The place people seek for depends on which aspects prevail. The immanent (natural) aspects of transcendence are driven by the opportunities individuals perceive and the social harmony of the environment they live in.

The Social Context

Abundance, poverty and scarcity define the basic context for individuals’ behavior. Abundance is the perception that the materialistic needs are covered and that all the necessary goods are available for the individual.

Poverty is the perception that one cannot influence the environment to change the situation of materialistic coverage. It is the consequence and cause of individual and social marginality.

Scarcity is the perception that the materialistic solution depends on what one is doing.

These attitudes drive personal behavior but they are also installed in the myths of cultures and subcultures.

Individuals with an attitude of poverty necessarily lose their hope in a situation of change where they feel excluded. Mass communication produces this sense of exclusion which could be compensated by an educational system that fosters adaptive behavior instead of operational submission.

All those who cannot adapt, feel excluded by the “system” and become necessarily outraged, blaming the formal authorities for their exclusion.

This feeling of exclusion generates a context of fundamentalist responses because people gather to get rid of their weaknesses. This individual feeling of exclusion is transformed into a social catharsis when people are led by outraged leaders.

Cell phones, now accessible for the mass are the natural media to share weaknesses. If someone has doubts, please take a look at the messages that are sent by the general public.

Fostering hope

Fostering hope requires conjunctural palliatives on the one hand and structural solutions on the other.

Conjunctural palliatives imply generating conditions for the development of economic counter-cycles that decompress the situation of the outraged. The development of structural solutions implies that there has to be a structural context that fosters equality of opportunities.

But it has to be considered that there is a natural inhibitor for avoiding structural solutions.

All the governmental actions that stimulate fallacious myth to cover weaknesses of a culture have rating in the population.

This fosters the need of installing fallacious myths to avoid the perception of weakness because public favorable opinion is a necessary condition for governmental actions.

That is why structural solutions do not produce immediate results and can only be introduced behind conjunctural successful decisions.

The equality of opportunities is inhibited by:

1) Prejudices.
2) The existence of a context of abundance and/or poverty.
3) Conservative domination of the environment without alternation with liberal governments.
4) The interests of segments who profit from marginality.

An explosive/implosive context is installed when inhibitors prevail.

Conclusions

Considering the growth of the population, the solution cannot be found in the past. It is expected that the population in the world by 2050 will be nearby 9 billion inhabitants. Smaller places require technological changes in order to make solutions possible.

This implies and educational system that opens places for the coming generations. You will not find massive catharsis of outraged in the countries that are leading the PISA statistics.

It has to be considered that in extreme stagnated contexts, cathartic conflicts can evolve towards civil wars. Therefore, conflicts need to be evaluated and diagnosed carefully.

Researching Adaptive Systems is an Adaptive Process

The research and design of complex adaptive systems requires adapting to the different application fields.

Therefore the semantics of the ontological structure has been defined using different wording for the homologous ontogenetic structure.

Logical approaches have been developed to solve specific problems. Researching and designing human complex adaptive systems implies the use of a new logic.

Unicist logic has been developed to deal with complexity and integrates preexisting logical approaches in their oneness.

The learning of the reading of unicist ontologies and unicist logic is strongly recommended when entering the field of researching human complex adaptive systems.

The understanding of the ontology of “biological entities” helps to follow the laws of nature when dealing with genetic engineering processes and use it to apprehend the nature of beings with “artificial life” such as institutions.

Dualistic thinking drives towards non-adaptive behaviors

June 21, 2011 in The Unicist Research Institute / Unicist Evolutionary Approach / Unicist Logical Approach / Unicist Objects / Unicist Ontology / Unicist Ontology of Evolution / Unicist Process Management / Unicist Standard / Unicist Strategy / Unicist Tweetinar tagged Unicist Evolutionary Approach by Peter Belohlavek

Unicist double dialectics requires using unicist logic that makes adaptive processes possible. Simple dialectics is the consequence of using dualistic thinking to deal with reality.

Dualistic thinking necessarily fosters non-adaptive behavior driven by idealistic, materialistic, spiritual or egocentric needs. Dualism is necessary when personal needs prevail over functional adaptation.

The consequence of dualistic thinking is that people believe in dialectical behavior. Adaptation is impossible when using dualistic thinking.

The benefit of using simple dialectics is that it transforms humans in judges of reality instead of responsible participants. “Right/wrong”, “nice/ugly”, “thesis/antithesis” are just examples of this way of thinking.

Why is simple dialectics so addictive?

There are several reasons:

1) It provides the foundations for rational univocal thinking which sustains the cause-effect approach to deal with simple problems.
2) It is the less energy consuming thinking process because it uses the natural binary neural process which is implicit in instinctive behavior.
3) It allows individuals to make value judgments disguised as rational processes. This provides the perception of being in power.

But simple dialectics has proven to be fallacious to understand and influence evolution. That is why simple dialectical approaches to reality drive to non-adaptive behaviors stimulated by the needs of domination, criticism, survival and inaction of individuals.

The Ontological Functionality of Myths in Social Evolution

Myths guide cultures providing a short path for actions and a framework of shared social fallacies to avoid the perception of their weaknesses.

Therefore myths include “true” and “false” aspects. The first ones to guide actions and the second ones to hide the weaknesses that are not functional to the culture.

It can be said that laws work as myths in a culture. Laws establish a way to behave and implicitly hide all the dysfunctional aspects of the society.

From an essential operational point of view it can be said that myths are integrated by short-paths that provide a solution, the freedom is given by the automated behavior that allows intuitive actions, the security is provided by the values shared by the society and the weaknesses are covered by shared social fallacies that work as fallacious myths.
