У статті розглядається дискусія щодо законів суспільства та детермінант розвитку, що тривала в європейській філософії історії, соціології та економічної науці, починаючи з позитивістської, марксистської та неокантіанської теорій середини ХІХ – ХХ ст. і закінчуючи новітніми економіко-соціологічними концепціями кінця ХХ – початку ХХІ ст. На основі аналізу неомальтузіанської теорії економіко-демографічних циклів, концепції дифузійних хвиль, породжених технологічними відкриттями, закону інформаційного впливу, принципів неодетермінізму та нелінійного розвитку осмислюється природа історичного процесу. Особлива увага в дослідженні приділяється проясненню сенсу та перспектив шляху, яким іде цивілізація в контексті синергетичної концепції розвитку, а також поворотам, коливанням та зигзагам руху сучасних суспільств.
The article explores the debate on societal laws and development determinants in European philosophy, sociology, and economics, spanning from the mid-19th century to early 21st-century theories. Through analyzing neo-Malthusian theory of economic and demographic cycles, the concept of diffusion waves generated by technological discoveries, the law of information impact, the principles of neodeterminism and nonlinear development, the nature of the historical process is comprehended. The aim of the study is to clarify the meaning and prospects of the path that civilization within the concept of nonlinear development and to analyze the outcomes of social and cultural transformations in modern society and their impact on people's lives. Research methods of the study are sociocultural and systemic approaches, methods of categorical and logical-analytical analysis, as well as the principles of historicism, synergetics and neo-determinism. Research results. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, researchers specializing in social structure and cultural anthropology, such as J. Goldstone, W. Hardy McNeil, and J.P. Murdoch, developed the structural-demographic theory of historical cycles and the concept of diffusion waves as laws movements of society. For example, J. Goldstone, a proponent of the neo-Malthusian theory of structural-demographic cycles, argued that demographic crises, particularly overpopulation, are key drivers of social upheaval. Diffusionists posited that fundamental cultural elements emerged only once in specific locations due to technological breakthroughs, with the world market’s formation, leading to uneven economic development. Unlike these universal historical laws, the law of information influence is specific to modern information civilizations, addressing the complex shifts in public consciousness. Discussion. Being a self-organizing, non-equilibrium structure, society is in a state of nonlinear dynamics (M. Mozheiko, O. Kubalsky). But if society is an unstable, unbalanced system where dynamic cause-and-effect relationships coexist with principles of nonlinear dynamics, its nonlinear and probabilistic nature creates conditions where small-scale events can result in significant consequences. Conclusions. Thus, we live in a rapidly changing world where new, previously unpredictable technical and technological discoveries and cultural innovations emerge, alongside threats to peace, economic growth, health, and progress. This underscores the enduring interest in searching for social laws, identifying determinants of development, and uncovering the form and meaning of the historical process.
