Community as an artificial system: from the need to survive to world globalization

Abstract

Topicality. The course of socio-economic processes currently taking place in the world requires their understanding and scientific justification. Goal. To identify the regularities of these processes and to predict the possible directions and results of the development of the community. Research methodology. To analyze the reasons for the development of the community, we will use the author's functional-systemic approach and the theory of the development of artificial systems (TDAS). Let's define the concept of "system" as a complex of interdependent elements that create a complete integrity by their union, and the essential feature of the system is its origin. This makes it possible to divide systems into natural ones, which arose in the process of the evolution of nature without human participation, and artificial ones – created as a result of human activity to satisfy his needs by performing the main function, which allows us to evaluate the development of artificial systems from the point of view of the quality of the performance of this function
