About groups and social cohesion
Primary tabs
The Collective Mind analyzed the "eternal" topic - does the cohesion of SOCIETY become greater or lesser when co-organizing into groups?
The CM found out the goals of group organizations |+| :
- for survival |+|
- for development |+|
- for cooperation and interaction |+|
- to complement each othe |+|
- more fun togetherе |+|
- to keep myself busy |+|
- find out what you're worth |+|
- bad without a guide |+|
- get synergy |+|
- realize an idea |+|
- gain strength |+|
- in practice, the results are different |+|
The Collective Mind has defined the terms: COHESION and GROUPS.
COHESION is the unity of|+| in understanding |+|, intention |+|, action |+|. Cohesion differs in its characteristics |+| and, contrary to the belief that it is immeasurable |+|, can be measured |+|. Differences in the standard of living of people |+| can also have an impact on social cohesion.
GROUPS - we mean any groups that exist (or are being created) today, regardless of size, direction |+|, level |+|.
Cohesion in groups of different levels has its own characteristics |+|.
Using the COMPLEMENTARITY METHOD, we analyzed the network's responses and found that it is not a bad thing to have many groups, as everyone can choose their own direction of development |+|. BUT!
Division into groups reduces |+| the cohesion |+| of society |+| .
Why: - People organized in groups are easier to exploit |+|, it's easier to drain their energy |+|, social networks break society into small groups |+|, and the quarrels of their members lead to a decrease in social cohesion|+|.
In the relations of groups and individuals, the Ego intervenes |+|, which does not tolerate consent |+|, competition |+| comes into play. In nature, the strengthening of cells leads to the strengthening of the organism |+|; only when the cells do not reject each other |+|.
Theoretically, as the number of groups grows, the cohesion |+| of society |+| becomes greater |+|, and "strong" group ties and interests are included. However, the cohesion here can be greater if the contractual capacity/alliance ability |+| of the (groups) is good, which is not yet observed.
The highest consolidation of society is in the system-wide consolidation of its members|+| , which is achieved in the Intelligent Society.
