BHA: understanding and dualism
Tobin, Jan, Ruth, Mervy
It is part and parcel of dCR to free-being especially when sociality is expanding albeit without mystification of matters of fact.(cognitive economics) Durhkeim was firm about his organic solidarity which is quite different from mechanistic solidality, even though some sections of social scientists, have interpreted his OS as MS. Certainly the societies he refered to, were quite different.
OS > MS (industrial social order). Notice too that natural phenomena is not deviod of social (human) praxis (practices). I can't see any paradoxies since social practices are grounded on the modalities of reality.
In here, we can actually realise the emergent properties - as a world of understanding is continually distanced from the world of rationalism as thematised dualism.
Rationalism is evident in the manner which cosmological conscious is actualised as facts or things of nature.
Dualism, is governed by transcendental idealism coverted to experiences which are later thematised and then operationalised as hard social facts which indeed they are not. (TI >> empirical >> thematised >> hard facts)
Therefore social facts are neglected in the above scheme.
One can turn the above scheme around : and say SOCIAL FACTS(know-how)
>> THEMATISED EMPIRICAL (experiences >>> transcendental realism >> categories of the world including Plato, Kantian with Socratesrain dialogue.
AI does exist but I don't believe people should behave like
machines since people do have souls. Notice too that if one does
not grasp this fact of matter, there is a reversal of realism to idealism(mystification)in the, process erasing the socially
regulated relationship of rules and action.
eudaemonism.
