| Summary: | Contemporary science of complexity have a significant impact on ideas about the
relationship between humans and the environment. They integrate the achievements
of systems approach, cybernetics, synergetics, constructing an ontology of
diversity, which requires a radical conceptual turn in epistemology. Enactivism is an
under-appreciated epistemological strategy that proceeds from notions of complex
self-organising systems, the kinds of relationship between the knower and the
knowable. Declaring the functional equality of subject and object, enactivism shows
similarities with some of the new ontology principles — anti-sensationalism, antireductionism and heterogeneity. According to the new ontologies and enactivism,
the human being is not a self-contained ‘selfness’. Under enactivism, man is given
the most ‘ecological’ strategy for knowing diversity. This strategy covers not only
the ‘ecology’ of impersonal self-organising systems, but also the human mind,
including the principles of complex thinking. The closest to science of complexity
is the position of autopoiesis enactivism, which avoids the extremes of biologism,
psychologism, solipsism, and schematism in the cognition of diversity. |
