Subject: November 12 Online Schiller Institute Conference: Reviving the
Heritage of Vladimir Vernadsky
In this time of great political tumult, of controversy concerning the
positive role of human technological progress, and of the growing danger,
whether through design or miscalculation, of military conflict between
thermonuclear powers, the revolutionary ideas of the great Soviet,
Russian–Ukrainian scientist Vladimir Vernadsky (1863–1945) demand to be
examined and studied. This is particularly true of Vernadsky’s concept of
the noösphere, the physical-economic sphere by means of which human
scientific thought becomes the predominant force in our universe.
Amid calls to divide the world into ideological camps, the concept of the
noösphere demands a new paradigm, one that brings humanity closer together
rather than further apart.
Central to the noösphere is maintaining a fundamental commitment to the
advancement of science, that is, to realizing those fundamental
breakthroughs in scientific thought, which, when implemented in the
productive process, enhance the power of man in the biosphere. While
Vernadsky’s primary scientific contribution was his discovery of the
powerful function of “living matter” in transforming and enhancing the very
nature of the underlying inert universe through the “migration of atoms,” so
too he saw that man, through the development of his scientific thought, was
having a similar effect on transforming and enhancing the work of the
biosphere.
Towards the close of Vernadsky’s life, as World War II was coming to an end,
he insisted that it was urgent for countries to unite their forces in
working together to realize the common aims of mankind, a commitment which
he shared with the Soviet Union’s wartime ally, America’s Franklin Delano
Roosevelt.
This symposium is dedicated to reviving the name, ideas, heritage, and
mission of this seminal scientist. We have assembled noted scientists from
around the world to come together to discuss fundamental scientific advances
being made, or soon to be made, in their respective fields of activity, many
of which were also fields of inquiry for Vernadsky. In the afternoon, we
will discuss some of the physical engineering projects underway in various
parts of the world to improve the condition of mankind — to develop the
noösphere.
Panel 1: 10 am – 1 pm (eastern US time)
Vernadsky’s Revolution in Science and Thought
Bill Jones: “Vernadsky’s Promethean Concept of Scientific Thought as a
Geological Force”
Washington Correspondent, EIR News Service
Dr. Vladimir Voeikov: “Vernadsky’s Concept of Living Substance, with
Emphasis on the Fundamental Role of Water in its Existence and Development”
Doctor of Biological Sciences, M.V. Lomonosov Moscow State University
Prof. Sergey Pulinets: “A Journey Through Vernadsky’s Universe”
Principal Research Scientist, Space Research Institute, Russian Academy of
Sciences, Moscow, Russia
Prof. Alberto Prestininzi: “Climate Change and the Galaxy”
Professor, Sapienza University, Rome, Italy; Director of the Center for
Earthquake Research and Information (CERI).
Jason Ross: “Vernadsky’s Economic Space and Time: The Anti-Entropy of the
Noösphere”
Executive Director, The LaRouche Organization
Panel 2: 2 pm – 5 pm (eastern US time)
Physical Economy: Developing the Noösphere
Vladimir Vernadsky, in developing the concept of the noösphere, in essence
created a unique approach to physical economics, strikingly similar to
LaRouche’s method of physical economy, which utilizes chemistry and rates of
physical output and input of production as necessary measurements, rather
than the non-specific monetarist approach. The development and discovery of
new resources, and new approaches to harnessing and distributing resources
to effectively increase the productive output of an economy, are a keystone
of this approach. Water management, and the development of corridors of
energy and transportation are also fundamental. Speakers in this panel will
discuss powerful proposals in those fields and discuss new discoveries about
the nature of water itself, and its relationship to the biosphere and
noosphere, and the broader issues of climate in the context of the solar
system and galaxy.
