Utilitarian theory of evolution
scientific thought about soil phenomenon: noosphere approach
A
theory is the most complicated form of expressing scientific knowledge. It
appears only at the highest cognition development level of some unity of
phenomena and contains a number of more simple elements.
Utilitarian
theory of evolution scientific thought about soil phenomena underlines natural world unity, unity of
living and non live matters, bearer of scientific thought. It leans on numerous
scientific facts and envelops all processes with terra-complex elements.
Our
theory is agreed with V.I. Vernadskiy's scientific position. This soil
scientist picked out objective regularities of multi sides socio-historical
process. They were connected with irregular development of scientific knowledge
with other forms and spheres of socio-historical and spiritual-cultural life of
human activity. The peculiarity of human attitude to the nature in different
socio-historical periods played an important role in these processes.
Social
changes, production organizational level, culture, scientific thought and
reproduction processes (demographic problem in wide context),assimilating of
new territories and earth sphere are realized irregular at time and sphere.
This irregularity is characterized by wave periods, blasts or periods of long
stagnation, slow movement of some group elements. The first forms of
development could be marked as revolutions (social, technical, scientific,
demographic, cultural etc.), the second – as the periods of evolution
(relatively smooth development). It's clear that the first appeared at struggle
time of different processes, the second – when contradictions did not get
critical point. Accounted development forms in the history of the planet and
society are irregular and could not be equal by time. By the way, appearance
one form may made quick or slow the movement of another one. It is touched up
the social revolutions. Contradictions of productive development and class
society organization concerning the revolution of scientific thought and
culture in the whole are in their basis. Contradictions in the interactions between
society and nature are reflected there. It is actual for today situation in
ecological, demographic and energetic crises on the Earth.
Terra-complex
is an abstract and idealised object of the theory of evolution scientific
thought about soil phenomena. It is some system of interaction notions about
biosphere, noosphere and technical sphere – the parts of soil phenomenon and
its usage.
We
thought that terra-complex is a continuous of complicated processes of biosphere, noosphere and technosphere. They
have some attitude to soils as the parts of the Earth and universe.
Vernadskiy
said, that the changeability of morphological texture of live matter was
necessary in the evolution process, but it had changed its chemical contains
during geological time. The soil scientist thought that this question demanded
experimental check. He underlined that the external Earth ability – biosphere –
sharply had been changed intentionally and chiefly unintentionally by people.
The
evolution of kinds turns to biosphere's evolution. We could observe its bright
entrance into geological history of the planet. An intensive increasing of the
influence of one alive matter – civilizational humanity – on the biosphere's
change is observed last time. It is happened under the influence of human
thought and activity. As a result, biosphere gets over new condition –
noosphere.
Noosphere
was born when people had created the second nature - artificial organs of
human existence in the world. We could something affirm about natural processes
and discover natural laws in it. It is possible only living in artificial
world. Scientific discoveries in global ecology are possible only in noosphere.
That's why the notion “noosphere” can broaden our outlook, help us to get
intellectual experience of that cosmic basic notions in what we live and build
our ecological system of knowledge.
Noospere's
discoveries are possible not from the position of external observer but from
the getting experience as we have got as those who had created the artificial
organs of our life. Every changed condition built some noosphere's parts of
that where we live and realize our projects.
Thus,
biosphere's part – living matter – biological alive phenomena (including
people) are replied to soil formation, existence and evolution; technosphere's
part – the elements of material
culture, thanks to it terra-complex could exist. Among them are: soil
formation's implements, navigator cosmic technician, equipment to the soil
analyses.
Terra-complex
is a structural element of the theory and has some levels:
V. History of
scientific thought about soil formation and their factors.
VI.History of
scientific thought about soil usage, its influence and methods of improving the
conditions of cultural plants' growth.
VII.
History of scientific thought about mean and methods of terra-complex
functionality at the second level.
