Forces of Society (2023)
In his latest book “Forces of Society”, Ivan Tucakov explores the process through which matter builds the world of biological life, further pushing the emergence of cultural societies, each with their own unique forces.
Ivan examines where our personality traits and temperaments come from, how we learn and how we get conditioned. The volume unveils what our judgments, opinions and “free-will” ultimately grant us and how our own rules and laws shape our individual core values and roles in society, all the while creating clear distinction between worlds of energetics, genetics and memetics.
In this volume, Ivan coins two terms for socio-cultural groups: propoliteia (from “pro” and “politeia”, that means “before governance”, or “before governing bodies”) which defines “egalitarian” societies, and eupoliteia (from Greek words “eu” and “politeia”, which mean “good/true governance”) which defines hierarchical societies.
Cultura Rasa (2019)
Cultura Rasa explores the emergence and replicative nature of socio-cultural societies. It presents an integrated picture of all animal cultures, built from the bottom-up: starting from the world of atomic matter, over biological systems that they create, which further emerge into neural networks that ultimately build cultural systems. Cultura Rasa also offers a dozen original hypotheses within the disciplines of science and philosophy, whilst also proposing a preliminary structure of the tree of culture.
Ivan’s intent with this primer is to create accuracy and consistency in concept definition, to offer a deeper understanding and tolerance of varying cultural worldviews.
