LEGAL NOOSPHEROLOGY AS A SCIENTIFIC AND EDUCATIONAL DISCIPLINE: OBJECT, SUBJECT AND METHODS OF RESEARCH

Abstract

The article is devoted to the definition of the object, subject and research methods of legal noospherology as a scientific and educational discipline.
 It is pointed out that the formation of "legal noospherology" as an interdisciplinary science is a natural result of the process of human cognition of the world around us. The initial accumulation of information and further differentiation of a single system of primary knowledge about the laws of nature and society, the allocation of independent disciplines and the subsequent need to solve intersectoral problems - inevitably lead to the formation of new interdisciplinary sciences. Examples that confirm this pattern are the scientific and educational disciplines "legal anthropology" and "legal sociology". They were created to solve current intersectoral problems based on the sciences of law, anthropology and sociology.
 It is proved that legal noospherology is a new promising scientific and educational discipline, in which on the basis of an interdisciplinary approach it is possible to study a wide range of current intersectoral civilizational problems by complex methods - jurisprudence and noospherology. This interdisciplinary – legal-noosphere approach, developed by the authors of the article – is designed to monitor the process of legal globalization, development of noosphere law and methods of MP-forecasting – based on scientific ideas about the natural unity and continuity of civilizational events. In turn, this gives grounds to apply in legal and noosphere research scientific methods of similarity theory, general topology and game theory, etc., in accordance with the mathematical concepts of "integrity" and "continuity" of the studied global object. Carrying out research on the platform of legal noospherology using the topological information-legal Model of the noosphere developed by the authors allows to study the origin and development of a holistic legal-noosphere natural phenomenon in a single spatial continuum in real time in a scientific experiment. Such opportunities are especially important for understanding the laws of sustainable development of world civilization in their ecological and legal application and global manifestation - that is, in teleologically sound activities of MP- forecasting. This indicates the most important role of legal noospherology as a scientific and educational discipline that it is able to play – and not only in the development of noosphere law, in the development of the entire system of legal and geopolitical sciences, but also the development of various areas of research in globalism.
