| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Discussions related to global show a growing agreement about the kernel of global problem being a complex mix of cultural and psychological factors such as thought processes, value and worldviews. This consensus is supported by historical experience, which provides numerous examples of crises caused by activity. a survey of such percents helps highlight the essence of the trouble humanity is currently experiencing. The themes in this paper have developed alongside evolutionary mechanisms recently conceptualized as a result of two complementary paradigms- mega-history and complexity (synergetic or chaos theory). The article also briefly present key patterns and mechanisms to substantiate final arguments. |
