Psychology of civilization

Psychology of civilization

Civilization as the highest form of cooperation

In the New Psychology of DREVO, civilization is viewed as the result of centuries-long collaboration between millions of people and thousands of generations.

It includes not only states, cities and technologies, but also knowledge, culture, morality, science, education, language and human experience.

Civilization is a living system that continuously develops together with man.

Just as the individual develops through family and community, humanity develops through civilization.

What is civilization?

Civilization is the ability of a society to preserve, accumulate, and transmit knowledge, creating conditions for further human development.

It unites:

• science;
• education;
• culture;→
• technologies;→
• economy;
• right;
• medicine;
• art;
• ecology;
• public institutions.

All these elements form a single system of human development.

Psychology of civilization

The psychology of civilization studies how collective consciousness, culture, knowledge, values, and modes of cooperation influence the development of humanity.

It examines not only the behavior of individuals, but also the patterns of development of large human systems.

The question of the psychology of civilization sounds like this:

"How does humanity become more mature?"

Stages of civilization development

History shows that human development goes through several main stages.

Survival civilization

The main task is to save lives.

The struggle for resources, security and physical existence prevails.

Civilization productions

The main task is to create material wealth.

Crafts, industry, economics and technology are developing.

Civilization of knowledge

Education, science, information and innovation become the main resources.

Civilization of creation

The next stage is a society in which knowledge, technology and economics serve the development of man, nature and future generations.

It is this stage that New Psychology DREVO considers as a direction for further development.

Signs of a mature civilization

A mature civilization strives to:

• respect human dignity;
• keep the peace;
• develop education and science;
• maintain culture;
• protect nature;
• use technology for the benefit of people;
• reduce the level of violence;
• strengthen international cooperation;
• think long-term.

Its main wealth is not only natural resources, but also the quality of people.

The psychological age of civilization

Like a person, civilization goes through stages of maturation.

An immature civilization is more likely to act impulsively, guided by fear, force, and short-term gain.

A more mature civilization is more likely to rely on knowledge, cooperation, long-term planning, and respect for human dignity.

This analogy serves as a philosophical model, not a strict scientific classification.

Civilization and nature

Humanity does not exist separately from the biosphere.

By destroying natural systems, civilization gradually weakens its own foundations.

Therefore, sustainable development requires finding a balance between technological progress and the preservation of the natural environment.

The future of civilization depends not only on new technologies, but also on the ability to live in harmony with the Earth's ecosystems.

Civilization and the Future

• Each generation inherits a civilization.
• But each generation is also responsible for what it will become.
• Real progress is not measured solely by economic growth.
• It is measured by
• how much people become:

• wiser;
• more free;
• more responsible;
• healthier;
• more cooperative;
• more creative.

The main principle

The highest goal of civilization is to create conditions in which every person can develop his or her abilities, preserve human dignity, and contribute to the development of life.

The more society helps a person become a creator, the more mature the civilization itself becomes.

Definition

Civilization is a historically developing system of human cooperation that unites knowledge, culture, technology, social institutions, and values ​​for the preservation and development of life.

In the New Psychology of DREVO, the psychology of civilization studies the patterns of human development, explores how collective values, culture, education and cooperation shape the future of society, and proposes a transitionfrom a civilization of survival to a civilization of creation, where the main wealth is not resources, but a developed person, strong communities and a responsible attitude to life.
