The development of systems thinking and systems worldview needs new types of system approaches. New types of systems approaches should find their place in the appropriate classification of scientific approaches. The article attempts to substantiate the natural connection of classical scientific approaches with their system analogues. This relationship is manifested in the General classification of scientific approaches from the mono-disciplinary approach to the systems transdisciplinary approach. The definitions of the approaches in such a classification are distinguished by identification features and functional features. Classification allows you to consciously use these definitions within a single semantic field of scientific knowledge. The streamlining of scientific approaches within the framework of such a classification makes it possible to give a rationale for a wide range of interdisciplinary interactions in modern science.
Aim/PurposeThe year 2020 marks the 50th anniversary of the first official definition of the term "transdisciplinarity." This paper focuses on a critical analysis of the development of modern transdisciplinarity since its inception. Future ResearchAs the research shows, the organizers of modern international forums do not take into account the division of transdisciplinarity development trends. To increase the effectiveness and significance of such forums, it is necessary to return to the practice of organizing special international forums on the transdisciplinarity of science and that of education.
The article provides an attempt to solve the challenges of attaining the goals of the final document “Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” by means of the systems transdisciplinary approach concept and methodology. To achieve this, the author expands the existing concept of chemical evolution and describes natural mechanisms of directed transformation of the planetary matter. The article reveals the meaning of cyclic recurrence of development of supercontinents in geological history of the planet leading to the formation of the planetary matter required for further active transformation of biological objects, which are supposed to take part in that transformation. The author assumes and substantiates that stable development is controlled by the planetary and extraplanetary objective organizing compounds, which present effective mechanisms of appraisal and compulsion of objects of living and non-living matter to strictly definite results of activity and interactions. He shows the results of long-term and medium-term modeling of the development of modern society. The conclusion of the article describes the possibility of using methodology of systems transdisciplinary approach in organizing sustainable development since 2016.
T he complexity of technical objects is constantly increasing. A single accident or failure on such complex technical objects may cause large human losses, inflict damage on the environment, and be accompanied by severe economic losses. Generally, these single accidents and failures are caused by force-majeure circumstances. These circumstances can be identified, as well as further controlled using the methodology of various types of systemic approach. These types of systemic approach are enhanced not only by the new mathematical methods, but also by the general philosophical solutions. The methodology of systemic-transdisciplinary approach particularly uses models of spatial, time and information units of order. These models are the result of using the philosophical concept of a single world. These models with total isomorphism allow for more in-depth studies of non-biological, biological and social objects. The findings of such studies may provide a basis for enhancing the reliability of existing methods for monitoring complex technical objects.The concept and methodology of systemicmultidisciplinary and systemic-transdisciplinary approaches possess the required scientific basis referred to in "A World in Motion -Systems Engineering Vision 2025". These approaches form the second group in the systemic approach classification. It
