CHANGE AS A FORM OF EXISTENCE AND A CONDITION OF SURVIVAL

Summary/Abstract: Universality of change is a way of formulating the fact that all entities capable of being observed and even thought of – individuals, their variously formed groups, the society, the world of ideas and consciousness in maximally imaginable number of variegated forms and locations and the universe itself – are subject to change. Speaking of change is tantamount to speaking about all conceivable forms of existence and therefore about the universe of all things we encounter, create or imagine. These are the reasons because of which the subject of change – as a matter of principle – cannot ever be exhaustively treated. Because of their boundless variety and universality the comprehensively taken space of changes can bi classified in many different ways and, again, the set of classifications is infinite and inexhaustible. Hence only some classifications are singled out so that exogenous and endogenous changes are dealt with and then self-induced and externally imposed changes and changes at different levels of social organization focusing in particular to changes at the level of individual agents and variously defined systemic changes.
