Globalism, controlled chaos and values

. Consideration of the program of globalism and the concept of controlled chaoswas carried out on the basis of a study of the works of A. Toffler and S. Mann. This article analyzes the terminological basis of the proposed concepts. It is proved that the development of information communications testifies to the evolutionarity of processes on the world stage, which cannot be considered a feature of a revolutionary change in the type of civilization. The criticism of the Western attitude about the positioning of the newest society as purely informational, practically unrelated to industrial achievements, is given. It is shown that in reality the information boom is fully provided by the material production of the "second wave", within the framework of the development of which the possibility of solving various pressing problems, including the problem of energy resources, is visible. Special attention in the article is devoted to the criticism of the concept of «controlled chaos» from the perspective of synergetic methodology, the real threats associated with misunderstanding of the behaviour of nonlinear dynamical systems in the bifurcation mode are outlined. The implementation of the globalism program uses many techniques aimed at standardizing values. In this regard, the Kantian narrative of absolute value.


Introduction
The terms included in the title of the article require the authors to indicate their understanding of their content for the reason that, despite the entry of these concepts into scientific circulation, there is no clear semantic definition at the categorical level.Thus, there is no clear separation of the concepts -"globalism" and "globalization".A number of authors consider globalization as a process of growing interaction between countries, which is provided by new technological and information achievements of our time.This process certainly has the character of an objective regularity that ensures the deepening of the integration in the entire spectrum of relationships on a global scale.Globalism does not seem to be an alternative to globalization, but at first glance serves to streamline this process, represents a program for its implementation.For a long time, the main goal in the implementation of this program for the domestic reader remained as if behind the scenes.Although the concept of globalism was clearly outlined already in the 80s of the last century in the famous work of A. Toffler «The Third Wave» [1,2], in Soviet and later Russian reality, it did not receive a proper assessment.In the 90s, it was not recognized as a The first wave Agrarian civilization (10,000 years ago) definite threat to the sovereignty of the state.This understanding came to us in connection with the events in Yugoslavia, Libya, Iraq, Syria and especially in Ukraine.
The program of globalism has received a seemingly scientifically based strategy for its accelerated development.Such a strategy was the chaos theory, developed by Stephen Mann [3].The definition of "deterministic chaos" and its calquing into the concept of "controlled chaos" does not stand up to criticism either.These terms should not refer to chaos as it is understood in the history of human thought since ancient times, or as it is understood in classical science.Since the chaotic movement of, for example, molecules in water provides us with a safe opportunity to swim in seas, rivers, lakes, oceans, etc. God forbid getting into a strange attractor, which is an orderly movement of molecules in water turbulence, the common name of which is "funnel".In addition, such chaos, which provides us with the pleasure of unity with nature, does not require any management.It is clear that the disequilibrium of the dynamical system was called chaos due to the wide popularity of the work of the Nobel Prize laureate Ilya Prigozhin in co-authorship with Isabella Stengers «Order out of Chaos» [4].What is meant by the definition of «deterministic chaos» we will discuss in the next section.The ideology of globalism makes extensive use of concepts such as values and democracy to achieve its goals.Unfortunately, their semantic content has also undergone very significant corrosion.

Materials and method
A content analysis of the literature based on the material of foreign and domestic sources devoted to the problems of globalism, controlled chaos and values, as well as modern results of elementary particle physics and cosmology.The principles of comparative, complex and interdisciplinary approaches, self-organization methodology were used in the study (I.Prigozhin [4], Haken [5]).General and particular methods of scientific research were also used: comparative, system analysis, synthesis, analysis of documentary sources.A special place is occupied by the hermeneutic re-reading the works of the of German philosophy classics.

Results
А. Toffler's book «The Third Wave» (1980) uses as the main metaphor [1] the collision of waves leading to changes.The work is written in the genre of praktopia, in other words, the difference between the genre from both utopia and dystopia is especially important here.Toffler identifies three waves of civilization: agrarian (more than 10 thousand years ago until the end of the XVII century), industrial (XVII-XVIII centuries.-the end of XX century.) and the third, already flowing in our days, which he calls informational (Figure 1).The term «information society» has become widespread thanks to the work of John Naisbitt's "Megatrends: Ten New Directions transforming Our Lives" [6].Here he marks the milestone of the end of industrial society in 1956-1957 and criticizes the term "postindustrial society", introduced by Harvard sociologist D. Bell [7] to characterize the newly arrived realities.According to Bell, post-industrial society is moving towards the transition from the dominant role of property to the dominant role of science and the development of innovative technologies, as well as in the transition from the production of goods to the provision of services.In his book, Toffler uses the term «information society», although the concepts of Bell and Toffler generally coincide in their semantic content.
It is easy to notice that Toffler's concept does not echo the works of recognized classics in the theories of civilizations -N.Y. Danilevsky [8], O. Spengler [9], J. Toynbee [10], who carried out classifications in types of civilizations with their indispensable connection with their inherent cultures.On the contrary, he openly polemics with Spengler, saying that a nation is not a spiritual unity.Samuel P. Huntington, the author of the book «The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of the World Order» is not a follower of Toffler's concept [11].This work was published later, in 1996, and expressed the scientist's hope for changes in the world after the end of the Cold War.Toffler does not really care about the identity of the cultures of different peoples.The nation, in his opinion, "implies a fusion of two components: a united political system and a united economy" [1], and not a word about national identity, national history and culture, national consciousness.This is not accidental, because if the second wave generates, in his opinion, nation-states as its basis, then the third wave «destroys the fundamental foundations of the civilization of the Second Wave» [1].
It is hardly possible to argue with the fact that all civilizations went through the same two stages in their development, which Toffler writes about, because the development of mankind has common objective patterns in its evolutionary movement.Meanwhile, the special is a synthesis, a mutual transformation of the general and the singular.So underestimating any of these opposite sides, hyperbolization of one of them necessarily leads to distortion of the real picture.So, Russia has a thousand-year history of statehood, our multiethnic nation-state (in Toffler's terminology) took shape much earlier than the second wave.
Toffler tries to substantiate the irreducibility of the stages to each other, highlighting the characteristics characteristic of each of them, in order to indicate the revolutionary nature of the transition from one to the other (Table 1).The main conclusion of Toffler's concept is that the second civilizational wave has generated a lot of contradictions that it cannot cope with.The main thing is that "each nation expanded its economic and political borders to the most remote areas of the globe, so there was not only a clash of interests, but also a rivalry of nations" [1].
In addition, such a feature of the second wave as the desire for integration determines the need for each nation-state to expand beyond its borders.Condemning many crimes of the Second Wave civilization -colonialism, racism, wars, destruction of nature, etc., Toffler summarizes that the forces of industrialization are exhausted, two important circumstances make its continued existence impossible -it is a struggle with nature and non-renewable energy resources.To this are added the disintegration processes taking place in different spheres, about which the author writes in detail.
Toffler insists that revolutions are already underway in all spheres (and what he understands by the term «revolution» is not clearly explained), a revolution in energy, a revolution in technology, a revolution in the family sphere, a revolution in sexual roles and a worldwide revolution in communications, which require changes in the political system of the Second Wave.What is offered?The first principle is the power of minorities.The second principle is semi-direct democracy.The third principle is the separation of solutions.New institutions are needed at the transnational level.The author warns about the imminent clash of the second and third civilizations, which carries a huge danger, generates "social tension, dangerous conflicts and strange new political wave fronts" [1].
As for values, Toffler does not investigate the problem of values in detail, nowhere does it explicitly say what significant changes are planned here, although phrases about transitory values constantly appear, that in the second wave civilization «value systems are collapsing and splitting, and the lifeboats of the family, church and state are frantically rushing in this space» [1].
Written in 1980, the work was an attempt to substantiate the concept of globalism.Its influence on the international economy and politics, from the 90s of the last century to the present day, is difficult to overestimate.Toffler says that the «Third Wave» is not an objective forecast, and it does not pretend to be scientifically sound [1].As already noted, St. Mann's concept provides such scientific support for the implementation of the policy of globalism in life.
S. Mann reports for the change in the mechanistic style of thinking in military science, and, most importantly, at the highest managerial level, suggests that in the geopolitical arena be guided by the results of scientific studies of complex systems that describe phenomena that demonstrate how from a state of disequilibrium it is possible to reach a state of equilibrium through a strange attractor with the generation of new structures of order.

Discussion
First of all, it should be noted that the wave metaphor used by Toffler to characterize the change of civilizations is unsuccessful.Moreover, the second and third waves are opposite, collide, and in their confrontation carry the probability of great shocks.The concept of a wave always means the propagation of vibrations in space over time.Moreover, each point where the wave excitation comes itself becomes a source of secondary waves.These waves overlap each other, amplifying each other at some points, and extinguishing each other at others.The very fact of rectilinear propagation of light is explained by the mutual destruction of interfering waves in the entire spatial volume, so that a narrow beam remains, perceived by us as a beam.If the metaphor reflects a huge wave of the ocean, then such a wave, covering objects under it, leads to their complete destruction.Moreover, this is a process of destruction, but not revolutionary.The conclusions made by the author [12] are interesting; indicating the variants of the verbalization of futurological concepts used by Toffler, such as «shock of the future as a disease», "suicide as ethnomasochism", etc. Considering that special attention in the transition from industrial to post-industrial or information society is associated specifically with the development of science, as one of the most important factors of transformational changes, it would seem that the revolutionary nature of events should be associated with the structure of scientific revolutions, relying, for example, on the works of Thomas Kuhn «The Structure of Scientific revolutions» [13], Imre Lakatos "Methodology of research programs" [14].The main feature of the scientific revolution is that it does not destroy the previous results, but only clearly delineates the boundaries of the concepts underlying the previous research program with the mandatory implementation of the principle of conformity for new ones.By the way, three waves are not enough for a number of authors, and statements about the fourth paradigm are already being heard [15].
It is also not entirely correct to use the term "information society", although it is quite common in all public spheres.And this again can be attributed to the fact that just since the 80s of the last century in modern fundamental science there has been a process of a revolutionary transition from quantum field and relativistic research programs to a new one, designated as a "unified field theory".Within the framework of this concept, the task is to create a unified theory combining the standard model of electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions of quarks and leptons, the general theory of relativity and the standard quasi-Sitter cosmological model.Experiments are being actively conducted, including at the Large Hadron Collider.The authors [16] note that success in achieving such a unification is possible only with the inclusion of information fields, the existence of which is well known in physics.The linear information field (state vector) is present in the existing quantum theory as its important element, but works in this theory only in the reflection mode (information does not produce information).A special place is occupied by the proof of information interaction between objects within the framework of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox.The authors [17] note that the methodological expansion of modern science consists in the transition to unified concepts that unite a single system not only physical fields and interactions, but also nonlinear information fields responsible for selforganization, Life and Mind.Therefore, the question of a Person's place in the World and his ability to learn about this World is today unprecedented closely integrated with the problems of fundamental physics and cosmology [18].It would be possible to talk about an information society if scientific ideas about the world were supplemented with information about such information fields, or about a non-local observer covering our entire universe, which is discussed in the general theory of relativity, and, finally, about the role played in this world by a Person whose existence is rigidly predetermined self-organizing processes in the history of our world (the anthropic principle).As for the factors listed by D. Bell, J. Neibitt or A. Toffler, these are the usual evolutionary processes associated with the further development of technologies and communications, which, of course, will influence changes in the sociosphere.However, it is hardly fair to call such changes revolutionary.Toffler identifies computerization, the development of electronics, the space industry, oceanology, molecular biology, genetic engineering as elements of the third wave, and considers this to be the basis of a new information age.The task is to achieve unification, synthesis of these sciences.However, it is unclear why all these scientific branches are revolutionary new, and not the successors and consequences of fundamental research programs that established themselves and developed during the second wave.
A. Toffler identifies a system of six features that characterize the second civilizational stage: 1) standardization; 2) specialization; 3) synchronization; 4) concentration of people and capital; 5) maximization; 6) centralization.Toffler states that the third wave defies all these signs.The pages of the book contain various situations that should indicate the processes of de-standardization, critical attitude to specialization, to experts; destruction of the principle of synchronization, deconcentration; designation of the limits of a large-scale economy; decentralization, including national banks, national economies.It seems that these arguments speak only about the correction of forms of social interaction between the actors of the production process in connection with the development of information means of communication, but do not affect their content and hardly indicate the revolutionary nature of changes.The six signs given by the author reveal the second wave as a "ruthless force destroying human freedom" [1, p. 209], and the third wave by reformatting these signs serves to liberate the individual.What is the freedom of the individual, in principle, is not explained, there is simply no Kantian or anti-Kantian subtext here.
The authors consider [19][20][21] Toffler's merit in anticipating the phenomenon of prosumation and introducing the concept of prosumer.Quite a few academics and researchers in the field of communications -and social sciences in general -have recognized the actual importance of prosumers in the development of digital communications [19], which is considered as one of the signs of the demassification of society.From our point of view, the emergence of social groups specific to this epoch does not change the already established stratification structure of society.
It is impossible not to recognize the validity of criticism about environmental pollution generated by the Second Wave production system, the constructiveness of the introduction of the metabolic system.However, the rejection of energy sources polluting the biosphere threatens to destroy the production itself.Therefore, you can complain about this an infinite number of times, but the solution lies in the scientific field, including the development and improvement of nuclear energy, success in obtaining and using high-temperature superconducting materials.This, again, is a task set and solved within the framework of the Second Wave.
As for the concept of St. Mann with its reliance on a synergetic methodology, it should be emphasized that the main task of this field of modern science is to find mechanisms that could contribute to the modes of self-organization to develop in the direction of the desired state we have chosen in advance.But such mechanisms have not been found in science.However, Mann does not particularly care about this, because he is not interested in achieving stability on the world stage, any stability in international affairs is transitory, it is nothing more than a consequence, and can never be a goal.In addition, what is the goal of politics, for example, the policy of a state like the United States?Recall that there is no scientifically sound methodology to manage the system in a non-equilibrium state, but to bring an open system, for example, a «nation-state» out of equilibrium by influencing its order parameters in various forms -from informational influence, organization of various ways that undermine its structure-forming components, orange revolutions, direct military intervention, etc., perhaps.What is being done openly with some states, then with others.This marks the newest period of our time.That is, there is an artificial creation of non-equilibrium states in various parts of the planet.Moreover, this is a highly irresponsible approach.If we assume that the destruction being undertaken contributes to the goal of achieving world domination and the extinction of nation-states, this means not understanding the dynamics of non-equilibrium states, when completely unexpected small deviations from the average (fluctuations) can lead to uncalculated consequences.So, these authors' appeals to modern scientific achievements to substantiate the concept of globalism are untenable.It is necessary to agree with the conclusions made in [22. 23] that technological changes, firstly, pave the way for international transformations, and secondly, prepare the ground for the confrontation of players with ideological, historical and geopolitical rivalry.
The program of globalism has a clear, undisguised attitude to the erosion of the sovereignty of states.In achieving this goal, mechanisms aimed at the standardization of values and cultures are actively used.In addition, here the development of information technology comes in handy.A program of "rationalization" is being implemented through global media networks, which assumes subordination of the rational will to the instinct of well-being and pleasure.The imposition of a subjective, individualistic scale of values is carried out on the basis of the blurring of the very content of the category "value", replaced by such concepts as motivational, supra-situational goals that serve as guiding principles in people's lives [24].We would like to remind that the term "value" for the first time receives the status of a category in Kant's philosophy and, in its philosophical interpretation, distances itself from these goals: the value of moral behavior is fixed in what excludes a utilitarian attitude to the other [25].Kant's «axiological turn» narrows the scope of value by introducing the concept of absolute value and its opposition to relative values as a systemforming principle of ethics.Goodwill has absolute value, «which we evaluate without taking into account any benefit» [25].Without the Kantian context, the entire arsenal of proclaimed values lose their own content of the value relationship, dissolves into the principles of selective behavior.According to Kant, "it is with charity, not out of inclination, but out of a sense of duty, that the moral and beyond comparison the highest value of character begins" [25].In the ideology of globalism, the status of the basic absolute value that determines all other principles-values is not due according to a categorical imperative, but an economic factor.It is safe to say that the cultivated liberal values are a rollback to the level of subcritical dogmatism, which in principle has no idea about the great Kantian revolutionary coup [24].

Conclusion
Attempts to introduce ideas about revolutionary changes in the types of civilizations are the basis for the implementation of the program of globalism as the coming new era in the history of humanity.Globalism's main task is to create a single global financial and economic space.It is assumed that the dominant role in the formation of a unified global management system should belong to multinational companies, which receive the right to oblige the governments of states to comply with the neoliberal economic doctrine.Such a strategy should ultimately ensure the denationalization of the economy and lead to the extinction of nation-states.To achieve such a difficult task, the concept of «controlled chaos» is being introduced.The authors of this new doctrine seem to proceed from the nonlinearity of the dynamic system, which corresponds to the main provisions of the synergetic methodology developed in natural science.However, the fact that in such systems the key importance is attached to fluctuations that can play a leading role in the choice of an attractor and which may have their own national-ethnic, identification, etc. coloring, the «chaos managers», apparently, are not properly aware.In other words, the scenario developed by Western globalists turns out to be linear without due consideration of the diversity of human policy actors in a dynamic system.Nonlinearity requires the question of the types of bifurcation -implicit, catastrophe or explosion.Apologists of "controlled chaos" rely on the implementation of implicit bifurcation -the case when the attractor changes type.However, there is not the slightest reason to believe that the program of globalism will develop in just such a single direction.
