Reality must be read and the interpretation of that reading must represent the real world. This interpretation is the basis to emulate in mind the evolution process in order to forecast what is going to happen to design the necessary strategies to influence reality.

To do so a special language has to be used to represent the nature of reality. That is the language of the unicist ontology of evolution, formalized into a unicist logical language that can represent and objectify the structure of reality in order to transform it into a reasonable, understandable and provable grounding.

A team of specialists is necessary to design the models that are necessary to apprehend complexity and influence it.

The Unicist Confederation is an orchestra that uses all the instruments that are necessary to deal with the solution of complex problems.

Synergy is basic in the solution of complex problems. Common sense, intuition are initial inputs, but actual knowledge is basic to be able to apprehend the nature of reality and deal with it.

This is an invitation to all those who, having decided to work in the world of complex problem solving, are willing to manage the unicist language that has been modeled to provide the “necessary musical staff” to enable an orchestra to play following the harmony and melody of reality.

It describes the essential structure of a given reality following the structure of the ontogenetic intelligence. This allows researching and defining the nature of artificial adaptive systems in order to influence them.

The Unicist ontology defines the fundamentals of an artificial adaptive system that define the possibility to influence it. The field of possibilities is called the “credibility zone”.

Human action has to occur within this field of possibilities. The probability to produce a concrete result depends on the capacity to focus the actions on the fundamentals within the limits of a minimum strategy established by a systemic approach.

This allows managing artificial adaptive systems considered as a unified field with the environment that exerts direct and indirect influence in order to produce results.

Without cooperation the internal competitiveness in institutions produces paradoxical results.

Cooperation implies sharing one’s vital space while having reserves some place where that is not shared with others.

Cooperation implies the integration of a sharing activity and a place for one’s security.

Without reserving a safe place individuals cannot cooperate and competition is transformed into an utopia.

Cooperation Ethics Code

to develop competitiveness

Building a cooperative environment requires:

Cooperating with others and sharing with them what they need

Sharing others’ successes

Fulfilling and making others fulfil their commitments on time

Being self-confident

Being predictable, reliable and secure

Respecting and demanding respect from others

Establishing complementarities

Managing the rules of diplomacy

Widening the shared vital space

Establishing strong functional and personal bonds

Cooperation is a catalyst for individual and institutional learning. The lack of cooperation transforms competition into institutional self-destruction.

Institutional democracy implies organizing in a way individuals can participate as peers based on authoritative roles that lead towards higher levels of efficacy.

The acceptance that foundations have to be posed in order to allow dialoguing is basic.

“Monologuing” should be banned in group work. It naturally drives towards subjective conflicts.

By just installing the commitment with this ethic the organization will upgrade without noticing it:

Ethics of Foundations

to sustain democracy in Institutions

All members of a group agree to:

Explain the foundations of what is stated in an understandable, reasonable and provable way for the rest of the group.

Count on the “paperwork” supporting their proposals, and explain it clearly to the rest of the group.

Invite to participate in working groups only those individuals that have the capacity to understand the groundings of a problem.

Whenever the problem is complex give members the necessary time to be prepared to deal with such problem, and to understand the groundings of the rest of the group.

Have the necessary knowledge, beyond common sense, for solving the problems they are dealing with.

Explain the groundings when analyzing problems.

When evaluating actions, explain the synthesis but not the foundations that underlay them. However, upon request of the rest of the group, provide them with the groundings of the synthesis.

Take others’ groundings into consideration, and integrate them into yours, disregarding whom they come from.

Do not give an opinion when there is a lack of knowledge.When working in uncertain environments, approach the problem explicitly starting with a “groundless opinion”, but be responsible for obtaining the necessary knowledge to achieve a grounded one.

You will have started a continuous improvement to increase the synergy of group work by just installing these rules in your meeting room.

This subjectivism is built upon Intuition, Beliefs, Experience and Rationalism / Emotions.

These individuals integrate in groups and work as accomplices to sustain their comfort zone. They are fundamentalists acting in the name of interests, ideologies, religions or whatever they need to sustain their comfort zone.

Subjectivism fosters the conditions that are needed in order to survive, such as Corruption, Authoritarianism and Anarchy.

To do so subjectivists need to disregard objective information. They need to degrade all that implies objectivity and assuming responsibilities.

Manipulation, Value Judgments and Quitting are the main tools subjectivists use to avoid the assumption of responsibilities.

Beware of them and do not argue with them; they are always right.

Peter Belohlavek

It can be said that the knowledge needs to be shared in order to be legitimated. When the knowledge is “appropriated” by someone who is not part of the power structure, the individual becomes undesirable for the society.

Power and religion are natural complements that foster the avoidance of objectivity when dealing with human behavior.

Objectivity is the goal of science. Subjectivity is a comfortable parallel reality where absolute and fundamentalist ideas can be sold without being bothered by objective confrontations.

It can be seen that all fundamentalist approaches in power and religion hinder true learning of objective knowledge. They need to sustain empirical approaches in order to avoid needing to adapt to higher levels of objectiveness. These empirical approaches unavoidably lead to subjectivism.

The history of Galileo is just a paradigmatic example of this endless conflict.

The degradation of education and the misuse of language are natural consequences in cultures where the elites need to dominate.

Democracy is the natural antidote. But democracy doesn’t mean “eat excrements, millions of flies cannot be wrong”. Democracy implies being aware of a reality in order to pose grounded opinions.

Democracy implies knowledge. Subjectivity is necessarily anti-democratic.

Erudite people are individuals whose purpose is the creation of a parallel reality where they can feel superior based on the accumulation of rational information and a hypothetical rational evaluation. They build all the fallacies they need to sustain their parallel reality.

Eruditeness is an addiction that is produced by the uncertainty, hopelessness and impotence of individuals to achieve the role they have in their fantasy.

Erudite individuals do not apply their knowledge to real life, because they cannot accept validating their knowledge. They need to be right.

They are driven by the truth they build in their parallel reality, based on the judgment of the information they accumulate. They always need to judge comparative information in order to feel superior with a sense of pleasure and domination.

The paradox is that they implicitly consider they can evaluate any knowledge whoever produced it.

They cannot deal with ambiguity because its understanding requires confronting with the actual reality.

Their superiority complex, sustained by a rationalization talent,  drives their accumulation of information and the Oedipus complex drives their confrontation with the people they need to judge. They need to produce endless power-games in order to demonstrate their superiority, destroy authoritative roles and abuse their complements.

Wisdom requires dealing with the concepts of reality. Concepts can only be discovered in real life. That is why eruditeness cannot deal with concepts because it just rationalizes them.

Erudite individuals judge wise people with the absolute impunity of their gifted rationalization. That is why eruditeness is the anti-concept of wisdom.

This implies that the Oedipus complex avoids that individuals define how to overcome the generation of their parents.

Extreme conflictive supplementation implies the prevalence of a stagnated conflict with authoritative roles which implies an anarchic behavior sustained by fallacious utopias to avoid the assumption of responsibility.

Extreme symbiotic complementation is given by the building of stagnated links with the complementary roles that need to last forever.

To approach the Oedipus complex it becomes necessary to understand the drivers of personal evolution.

Human complexes avoid the possibilities of adapting to an environment. They create a parallel reality that hinders dealing with adaptive systems.

Complexes’ objective is to avoid the adaptation process of individuals, generating a parallel reality creating a comfort zone to live in.

Complexes are homologous to “cancer”. They develop at the expense of the individual and eventually kill it; the paradox lies in that in doing so they die as well.

Complexes make individuals or cultures act in the environment in such a way, that they transform outer reality into inner reality.

This way, individuals or cultures lose the capacity to adapt to the environment and confirm the “parallel reality” constructed by the complexes until they reach the point of being completely marginalized from the environment and become extinct or “die” in social terms.

Complexes are fed by fallacies and fallacious utopias that are constructed by women/ men to avoid responsibilities and to satisfy their own beliefs or needs.

We have identified two basic complexes at the level of ontointelligence: The Inferiority / Superiority Complex, to avoid personal responsibility, and the Oedipus complex, to avoid species responsibility.

The ontological approach to complexes is compatible with the psychological approach to them. This compatibility doesn’t mean being identical, because the ontological approach implies dealing with the structure of the nature of complexes without entering into their interpretative causes.

The characteristic of individuals who achieved wisdom is that they had multiple masters that had an authoritative role in their lives. These roles are still in force and they still admire them.

Admiration and functional envy are the concepts that allow achieving wisdom. Individuals who admire others’ achievements and deeds have the opportunity to achieve wisdom, but only if they pursue the objective of adding value in an environment. Functional envy drives individuals to achieve goals.

Individuals with conflictive relations with authority can never achieve wisdom. They might be extremely erudite, extremely hard workers but they will never be able to integrate idealism and realism with a value adding attitude in their environment.

The apparent paradox of wisdom is the need of multiple masters. It is said that disciples are those learners who overcome their masters. But wisdom, defined as the space where an individual has been able to integrate idealism and realism with value adding actions, cannot be overcome. Competing with a master in a field where s/he is wise is a demonstration of the prevalence of the need to gain over the need to add value. Multiple masters make wisdom accessible.

Erudition is not analogous to wisdom; it might be different or a fallacious “version” of wisdom. Wisdom implies action while erudition does not.

Achieving wisdom cannot be a goal for a wise person; wisdom is the consequence of the action of an individual but does not cause it. It is unwise to try to achieve wisdom.

That is why wisdom is a pathway with multiple masters. Masters are ordinary or extraordinary people who have achieved wisdom in some field. Look for them while you continue adding value. To achieve it you need to abandon your modesty and expand your humbleness.  Wise people do not need to be right, just functional.
