20.500.12556/DKUM-93714 Degrowth - a transcendence of sensate cultural mentality? P. Sorokin and his theory of social change as a strategy towards socio-ecological transformation Odrast - preseganje senzorične kulturne mentalitete? P. Sorokin in njegova teorija družbenih sprememb kot strategija za socio-ekološko preobrazbo There are essentially two fundamental models that explain patterns of social change: the linear model, based on evolutionary theory, and the cyclical model, which posits that human societies, much like many other phenomena, undergo recurring cycles of development. As linear models of “eternal progress,” rooted in the Enlightenment project, have come to dominate interpretations of human history and social transformation, the relevance of cyclical models warrants renewed examination. This study focuses on the cyclical model of social change developed by Pitirim Sorokin, evaluating the concept of degrowth as an indicator of the “progressive disintegration of sensate culture, society, and man,” as well as a sign of the “emergence and gradual growth of the first seeds of a new idealistic/ideational sociocultural order” (Sorokin, 1957, Preface). Drawing on Sorokin’s framework and its derived predictions, the study assesses a range of proposals and strategies aimed at transforming the dominant growth-dependent modes of production, living, and communication. Central to this analysis is Jason Hickel’s work Less is More (2020), which serves as a key reference point. V osnovi obstajata le dva modela, ko gre za vzorce družbenih sprememb – linearni model, ki temelji na teoriji evolucije, in ciklični model, ki predvideva, da človeške družbe, podobno kot številni drugi pojavi, prehajajo skozi cikle bolj ali manj stalnega ponavljanja. Ker so linearni modeli »večnega napredka«, ki temeljijo na projektu razsvetljenstva, postali prevladujoča razlaga človeške zgodovine in družbenih sprememb, se zastavlja vprašanje o relevantnosti cikličnih modelov/razlag. Za odgovor na to vprašanje se ta študija osredotoča na ciklični model družbenih sprememb, ki ga je razvil Pitirim Sorokin, znotraj katerega se ocenjuje koncept odrasti in sicer kot indikator »progresivne dezintegracije senzorične kulture, družbe in človeka«; kot indikator »pojava in počasne rasti prvih zametkov nove idealistične/ideacijske sociokulturne ureditve« (Sorokin, 1957, predgovor). Posledinčno se s pomočjo Sorokinovega modela in izpeljanih napovedi ocenjuje niz predlogov/strategij, usmerjenih k preobrazbi prevladujočega načina produkcije, bivanja in komuniciranja, odvisnega od rasti, kjer se kot ključno uporabi delo »Manj je več« (2020), avtorja Jason Hickla. environmental crisis degrowth cyclical theory sensate culture social and cultural transformation okoljska kriza odrast ciklizem senzorična kultura družbena transformacija kulturna transformacija true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Znanstveno delo 2025-07-16 03:09:45 2025-08-25 14:42:34 2025-08-26 03:35:34 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 11-46 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2025-07-04 316.7 240343043 242577923 10.18690/um.ff.6.2025.1 RAZ_Klanjsek_Rudi_2025.pdf RAZ_Klanjsek_Rudi_2025.pdf 1 B0E90D6984A9663AB3E9A851C1DFADE9 fdde3c0eab5d4bf4d436e349d03e984de450a198f132d7dd07719396aaa5b44f 1b7497e1-81b1-11f0-adee-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=196244 https://doi.org/10.18690/um.ff.6.2025.1 0 279835d4-81b1-11f0-adee-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=196246 Filozofska fakulteta 0 0 0
