"Alphabet of sustainable development: the Social component"

ABSTRACT: The paper presents the results of a systems transdisciplinary rethinking of the social component of sustainable development. The authors argues that the need for sustainable development arises at a certain level of socialization, when the formation of the structure of the “deep” elements of society ends in society: from the “deep” person to the “deep” people. These deep elements are the bearers of the standards of cultural codes and cultural models, legal and moral-ethical norms, environmental assumptions and rules of human behavior. Compliance with these standards in society is conditioned by the effectiveness of the existing world order, as well as a “deterrent factor” that prevents its violation. The paper describes the likely institutional changes in the structure of modern society associated with the new world order; provides a justification for the content of a new model of the world order; proposes a “Program for the prevention of global conflicts”, which will be carried out by specialists from various humanitarian disciplines; provides a justification for a new, non-violent “deterrence factor”. The paper invites experts to discuss with the authors on a number of issues presented in it.

Keywords: transdisciplinarity, global conflict, sustainable development, new world order, deterrence factor.
