Main ideas, paradigms and conceptions

[edit]

Professor Rahid Ulusel has given systematic analysis of the harmony philosophy. According to harmony philosophy, the three interconnected laws of dialectics by Hegel, i.e. the laws of quantity changes to quality, opposites interpenetrate, negation of the negation, function separately and interacting with each other, as a component of the world’s law of the harmony. Universal connections of being, that interactively accomplishing the internal interconnection of systems and subsystems are synergized on stages, phases and processes of the harmony of space, time and movement. On the base of the harmony law: (1) being transforms into the world-system, (2) movement transforms into dynamics, (3) time transforms into history, (4) antroposhere is generated as biospheric phase, (5) psycologos is generated as a phase of cosmologos, (6) culture is generated as a phase of the nature. Thus, the first greater mega-phase: Being – World – Creation of the Human, transforming homocivilization into the important evolution act of planetary life, gets completed from mega-phases, supplementing each other and creates conditions for transition to a new phase. The harmony philosophy (the Harmonics) represents a new concept of global self-organization of the world, as a self-ruling system based upon the criteria and principles of the harmony. The idea of realization of global unity of the world comprises the foundation of the harmonic philosophical weltanschauung. The basic concept-purpose of the harmony philosophy is to prioritize harmony-generating beginning in human activity and social life.

The philosophical thought acquires its integrity in the triad of Dialectics – Synergetics –Harmonics (the last term is used here as a philosophical category and not in terms of the musical harmony theory). Global problems of the modern world also receive optimal opportunities for study by means of methodology of this triad, which is systematized into the harmonics.

The structural, causal, synergetic, symmetric, chaotic, functional, differential, integral, temporal, spatial, static and dynamical harmonies are the main forms of manifestation of harmony. Harmonia progressio, conditioned by harmonia praestabilita, harmonia modificatio and harmonia modulation (dynamic attributes of the harmony) is Logos of the world development.

Universal principles of the harmony are the principles of unity in variety, coordination, logos, dichotomy, co-evolution, projection, “golden section”, criteria harmonias, regulation, consensus, convergence, divergence, concentration and a “mirror” principle, which are closely inter-conditioned with each other intercondition each other. Enrichment process of self-creation of the Universe continues every time and at space interval of its life on the base of these principles of the harmony. Professor Rahid Ulusel determines the principles of diasynchrony of planetary development, the dialectics of space-expansion and time-intensity; reveales historical genesis of global structuralization – the formation of Eastern and Western geopolitical and civilizational blocs and the motives of this planetary dichotomy; puts forward the conception of “homouniversalism” as an alternative to “globalization”, a philosophical paradigm for the world development towards global civilization; investigates the formational process of megasocium (homouniversum) – in which mankind cognizes his planetary unity; formulated the theoretical foundations of civilizatiology (theory of civilization studies) as a new branch in the system of the humanities; correlates the Eastern one-dimensional monological thinking model with the Western multi-dimensional dialogical thinking. At the same time, he systematically investigates the dynamics of Turkic civilization, the phenomenon of Azerbaijani philosophical poetry, the theoretical and methodological problems of the contemporary Azerbaijani criticism; creates the examples of comparative essayistics (“Imadeddin Nasimi and Nicolaus Cusanus”, “Muhammad Fuzuli and Michelangelo Buonarroti”, “The Prophet”s of Huseyn Javid and Gibran Khalil Gibran”).

In his polemical writings, Rahid Ulusel substantiates the position that, globalization is not unipolarization. All-round development opportunities of other states, even allies, across the globe are limited or reduced for the hegemony of one state and for the dominance of one civilization in a unipolar-pyramidal construction of the world. The strategy of global or planetary civilization does not accept a deformative unipolar world’s governance construction, which has a crack between its “center” and “peripheries” and concentrates the energy of “the peripheries” into “the center” in such contradictoriness. As there is no factor of attractive integration around international interest in this distorted tendency of globalization not organic world system, which is formed by the harmony of independent subjects, but artificial constructuralization of an amorphous world happens. Neither defeaters nor winners are in need of the amorphous world. Homouniversalism cannot be created upon the construction of the amorphous world, which subjects the humanity to systematic crises and to a lack of system and control. Harmonic foundation-building of the world system, maintenance of a turning strategy of the world from unbalanced into balanced development, formation of world order on the basis of convergent idea on the world unity of nation-states, the leading way of integral globalization contrary to pyramidal globalization are the principal conditions of its progress.
