Summary

Introduction

As well as law in general, belongs to a priori systemic phenomena of reality [1]. Already from the first paradigm of the general theory of systems, which was called the "part-whole" and was arranged by Aristotle, follows that the complex phenomena should be investigated systematically, because in all such cases, "an integer greater than the sum of its parts" [3: 113] This is the so-called axiom of emergence. The author cites the above, in the system as integrity there are certain qualities that are not specific to any of its elements in particular This paradigm has long been used to describe and explain the emergence of system qualities, or, as the creators of the theory of systems express, "effects of the system", and successfully applied in the analysis of any systemic phenomena [3: 114]
