ON THE COMPARISON OF STAGES OF SYSTEMIC GLOBAL EVOLUTION OF HUMANKIND AND TYPES OF SEMIOTIC SIGN SYSTEMS
Abstract
The main structural and spatiotemporal characteristics of the author's informatics-cybernetic hierarchical-network model of the self-controlling system of Humankind are presented. The stages of its systemic global evo-lution are compared with the classification of types of sign systems (TSS) by A.B. Solomonick. A high degree of correspondence has been established be-tween the content of the stages of complication of basic information technologies (BIT) and spatial types of civilizations (STC) in the course of global evolution with the elements of the TSS classification in threes: (i) BIT "Signal poses/sounds/movements"-STC "pre-pre-civilizations"-TSS "Natural sign systems;" (ii) BIT "Mimics/gestures"-STC "pre-civilizations"-TSS "Im-age systems;" (iii) BIT "Speech/language" - STC "protocivilizations"-TSS "Language systems; (iv) BIT "Writing/reading" - STC "Local civilizations" - TSS "Writing systems;" (v) BIT "Replication of texts/book printing" - STC "regional and subcontinental civilizations"-TSS "Formalized sign systems of the first order;" and (vi) BIT "Local computer" - STC "Planetary Civiliza-tion"-TSS "Formalized sign systems of the second order." The possibility of supplementing the classification of TSS by introducing the concepts of "For-malized sign systems of the third order" and "Formalized sign systems of the fourth order" as an analogue to the following stages in global evolution BIT "Telecommunications/networks"- STC "Civilization of Near-Earth Space" and "nano-BIT (AI-BIT)" - STC "Civilization of Intermediate Cosmos," respectively. It is also proposed to expand the meaningful interpretation of the elements of the TSS classification by introducing into it the corresponding spatiotemporal parameters of informatics-cybernetic model and also consider TSS as defining cultural characteristics of the corresponding STC. It is concluded that the sequence of emergence and increasing the level of abstraction of the TSC can be interpreted as another reflection of the processes of the systemic global
evolution of Humanity.
