Dear
Colleagues,
We prepared this Report to be
delivered on the pulpit of the World Forum “Rio + 20” in order to attract the
world public attention to the prominent date: on the 12th of March
in 2013 we shall celebrate 150 years anniversary of the birth date of Vladimir
Ivanovich Vernadsky, the outstanding Russian scholar, natural scientist,
thinker and public figure.
Name of V.I.Vernadsky is closely tied
with the whole époque in development of natural science, in establishment and
development of a number of spheres of science that defined its progress not
only in the XX century, but in the running 21st century as
well.
He stood at the outlets of such
branches of Earth studies as genetic mineralogy, crystallography, geological
chemistry, biological geo-chemistry, radiology, cosmo-chemistry; he also was a
co-founder of study of natural waters, chrono-radiology, chrono-bio-geo-chemistry,
chrono-bio-geology; he also made noticeable input into studies of sociology of
science and into a number of other fields of scientific studies.
In recognition of the Vernadsky’s
input into development of the world civilization UNESCO included his jubilee
into a list of memorable dates of the world history in the year 2013. The President Vladimir Putin supported the
relevant address of the Russian public and recommended to mark the Vernadsky’s
jubilee at the governmental level. The festivities on this occasion are now in
the process of preparation in Russia.
Here at the pulpit of “RIO + 20” we
represent Russian followers of the Vernadsky’s ideas and we are participants in
further development of his scientific school of studies of Biosphere and Noosphere.
You certainly
know that Vernadsky’s achievements in studies of biosphere are the most
important basis of development of the contemporary views on ecological
problems. And his studies of Noosphere without exaggeration laid a foundation
of the great Project on development of
mankind on the Planet Earth. To-day this teaching is being advanced at the
forefront of development of Science of the Mankind.
V.I.Vernadsky defined Noosphere as a new state of the biosphere,
where the scientific thought as a planetary phenomenon together with collective
conscience are becoming factors defining geological and biosphere evolution. His teaching on Noosphere has laid a theoretical foundation, upon which
Noosphere scientific school in Russia has been built and is currently further
developing. We believe that scientific achievements of this School will
adequately represent our country within international society.
We would like to provide here some
glimpses of establishment and development of the Vernadsky’s teaching. The first
cycle of establishment of the Noosphere science in Russia we would define
as a “Vernadskyansky’s cycle”. It was a period of scientific exploits of
Vernadsky himself in the years of 1915 – 1945: development of the definition
of Noosphere, creation of the theory of the living substance, of the autotrophy
of the mankind etc. This period is also related with apprehension of the
stream of ideas of the so called “Russian cosmism” (K.E.Tsiolkovsky and
others), with enrichment of the concepts introduced by Vernadsky, such as
intellectosphere, anthroposphere, with apprehension of the role of the human
mind as a necessary Reason for the Nature.
The second
cycle of establishment Noosphere scientific school in
Russia extended from mid-fifties till 90th years of the last
century. We relate this period with a number of scientific achievements
developing the Vernadsky’s teaching about Noosphere. Those include development
of ideas on necessity of the harmonious
joint development of the human being and its environment, i.e. of the
biosphere, in other words of the so called the co-evolutionary paradigm of the
Noosphere genesis. Such paradigm is tied with the scientific school of N.N.Moiseev. Very important moment in
establishment of Noosphere, as Moiseev thought, would be a provision of the
System “the Teacher” elevating the personality, envisaging necessity of impact
on the human conscience of the family, school and of the public environment. In the epoch of the Noosphere society the
teacher’s personality will play the overwhelming role. To solve this task is
currently an omnipotent, planetary problem.
The cosmo-planetary measurement of
Noosphere genesis can be
mentioned as one more prominent achievement of this period. He
thoroughly substantiated the fact that Biosphere of the Earth
is revealing itself the complex self-regulating cosmo-planetary system. It is actively absorbing the solar energy and
cosmic radiation and is transforming its own components into highly organized
bio-cosmic bodies. It should be followed
by a conclusion that any scalable study of the phenomena of the physical world
should be correlated with the relevant study of the living substance and of the
human being as the reasonable form of existence. Important in the creativity of
V.P.Kaznacheev and of his disciples is formulation of the concept of the Black Hole. Its essence is in understanding that due
to lagging behind in apprehension of the living substance on Earth the “black
holes of comprehension” emerge. Such lagging behind may become a reason for
disappearance of the mankind due to man-made and natural disasters.
The Scientific school of the social
ecology by A.D. Ursul at that
time introduced its own input into development of scientific school of social
ecology. He and his disciples raised a question on corridors of development
of social sphere defined by its interrelation with the bio-sphere within
bio-sphere as the macro-system.
We cannot avoid notion of such trend of development
of the Noosphere teaching in Russia as Noosphere cybernetics
(A.L.Yanshin and others) and Conceptual Ecology (N.F.Reymers and
others).
The third
stage of development
of the Noosphere Scientific School in Russia began at the mid-nineties of the
past century and is being maintained up till now. The essence of this period is
in systematic development of the ideas of Vernadsky and of his followers.
We would like to stress here only two of
the most streams of the ideas of this contemporary period of development of the
Noosphere scientific school in Russia. The first one is related with establishment of the complex scientific
school of Noospherism. The second
one – with elaboration of the
organizational – legal norms of the basement for regulation of the movement of
Mankind towards society of Noosphere Harmony.
The nucleus
of Noospherism is a scientific school of
A.I.Subetto. The principal part of his ideas is
substantiation of the imperative of the future Noosphere genesis in the form of manageable socio-natural
evolution on the basis of the social mind and educational society. The “Manifesto of the Noospheric socialism”
published by A.I.Subetto shows that the ecological survival of the mankind in
the 21st century has no alternative other than Noosphere socialist
one. Mr. A.I.Subetto established
and successfully manages fruitful activities of the Social Noosphere Academy of Sciences.
Organizational and legal norms and
basics for management of the movement of mankind towards the society of
Noosphere harmony are being developed by the scientific school of L.S.Gordina. Its nucleus is
elaboration of the draft of the Noosphere
Ethical-Ecological Constitution for Mankind. Mrs. Gordina successfully
established and fruitfully manages activities of the Noosphere
Spiritual-Ecological World Assembly.
Hundreds of scholars from different fields of knowledge are
currently involved into the contemporary stage of realization of creative
project to develop Noosphere ideas of
V.I.Vernadsky (V.N.Bobkov., V.N.Vasilenko, S.I.Grigoriev. G.M.Imamov,
V.D.Komarov, O.L.Kuznetsov, I.K.Lisseyev, V.I.Patrushev, V.T.Frolov and
others). They have published hundreds of
books, conducted scores of the scientific-practical forums and conferences;
they are realizing pilot educational and practical projects of establishment of
foundations for the Noosphere civilizations of the mankind. We have no doubt
that practical and theoretical streams of their ideas from Russia will be
usefully deployed by the whole mankind.
We would suggest introducing into the Resolution of the World Forum “RIO
+ 20” the following provisions:
1. To mark the important input by V.I.
Vernadsky into development of ideas of the
future of the human civilization and of the Planet Earth. To support
necessity to mark in the year 2013 the 150th anniversary of the
V.I.Vernadsky’s birth by conducting a number of large international
activities.
2. To mark the important input into
creation of the image of the future society of Noosphere harmony by the
Noosphere scientific school of Russia.
3. To appeal to the UN structures to
come up to practical discussion and adoption of the Noospheric, Ethical, and
Ecological Constitution for Humanity.
