About complexity. Moren E.

The book of the largest French philosopher and a sociologist with the world name of Edgar Moren “On complexity” is an affordable and constructive introduction into his very difficult conceptual apparatus. According to the moraine, the term “complexity” is applicable both to the physical world and human culture, and to the methods of understanding both the world and culture. Morer speaks of “complex thinking”, focused not so much on concepts as “cognitive operators”. Such thinking has a unique ability to move between natural science, sociology, psychology and philosophy, without towering any of these areas of thought. It is ideal for solving epistemological, ethical and practical problems that form the problems of our time. Moren claims that the contradiction between reason and intuition does not necessarily mean a mutual exception, since they are polarities that complement each other, without ceasing to be antagonistic. One of the principles of complex thinking of mores considers the principle of dialogue. He believes that the tension created by the coexistence of opposites leads to the constant emergence of new properties that lead to the restructuring of systems at higher levels of complexity.

The book is designed for philosophers, sociologists, psychologists, specialists in the field of natural science and all who is interested in the modern state of affairs in the world.
