Scientific ideas of living matter, the teachings of Vernadsky's biosphere and noosphere, rooted in the philosophical concept with which many thinkers have tried to understand the phenomenon of life and man's place in it as the most significant of its generation.Beginning with Darwin, the evolutionary ideas became the impetus for a substantial reorientation of thinking.On the one hand, people involved in the final running for the simplest life forms is related to a number of related development, on the other - in his daring term evolutionary dream began to open unprecedented horizons.
Vernadsky himself once pointed out that the search for space communications is precisely to increase the importance of these ideas for the philosophy of his time, which was manifested in the works of such thinkers as Bergson and NF Fedorov.
founder of biogeochemistry Contact with the idea of the French philosopher Henri Bergson - is exactly the case, which Vernadsky wrote, pointing to the importance of philosophy for scientific research.Does not become a prisoner of the metaphysical or idealistic framework of the system, the scientist has found it valuable sources of the future development of science.
The "Creative Evolution" Bergson developed the idea, which consists in the fact that life as such is a part of life, and it appears the process of deploying a space properties, driven by internal forces.These ideas were very close to the Russian scientist and that they began to form a theory of Vernadsky's biosphere.That Bergson first put the problem in the science of physical differences between the time of the "live" on a scientific basis, it was stressed by Vernadsky.
Vernadsky fundamentally rejected the old method of biological research, which was based on research determinant because, in his opinion, if that approach and acknowledged the influence of the environment on living matter, he could not answer the question about the nature of the formation of this environment.
Reasonable people in the activity measurement Vernadsky energy storage becomes a place of creative thought, actively transforming nature.Vernadsky emphasized that his idea is not new, utopian approach to it is found in the teachings of Karl Kessler and Peter Kropotkin, and later in the ideas of Fedorov, who came closest to understanding this substance as the Biosphere.
However, the decisive precondition for creating the concept of the noosphere scientists - the need for awareness of the oneness of humanity.Wrote Vernadsky, the biosphere in the conventional sense is not as people of moral interpretation.At the same time, the idea of the oneness of humanity, equality and fraternity, just speaks of the moral basis on the one hand, and on the other - the motive that forced scientists completely different look at the world and the cosmos, as the generation of a start.
third principle, which is incorporated in the teachings of Vernadsky's biosphere and that leads to the development of this scientific direction - a "massification" of social and historical life.And, finally, what was the objective condition for the promotion of the doctrine of the noosphere - the natural growth of science, its transformation into a major force of the noosphere itself.
Vernadsky introduced the scientific knowledge, it is a special category - the noosphere, which is defined as the scientific thought, which is a product of the evolution of living matter, and the process of this evolution can not be stopped.According to Vernadsky, the potency of such a development is almost limitless, but because scientific thought and moral becomes a determinant of human development, which is on the path of realizing its "universality", that is the way of coverage of the entire biosphere and humanity.
wonder that such thoughts came to the teachings of Vernadsky's biosphere, on the eve of World War II, that allowed him to prove conclusively postulate that scientific knowledge is the creating power of the noosphere, and can serve as the dark forces, antinoosfernym in nature.Humanistic crisis of the mid-twentieth century, according to VIVernadsky, has forced a fresh look at the questions of existence and communication of thought and the natural environment.
Only idea of the noosphere in its moral purity can put a man on the path of development, predestined him to the cosmos.This idea is at the core, which justified the universalism of such an extraordinary phenomenon, how stands the doctrine of Vernadsky's biosphere.Only the presence of active-evolutionary thought, in his opinion, which began to take shape suck recently, in the nineteenth century, gives a person a vector of understanding themselves in nature - an understanding of ourselves as being a consciously creative, active, "growing", whose purpose is not only and notas in the transformation of the natural environment, as in the transformation of the nature of their own.
