Dear Psycho History Contributors,

FYI --

The first of three planned sections within Part III of a treatise on the construction of psycho-historical mathematical models of human history has been posted to the World Wide Web, and can be accessed via the following link --

The overall Title of Part III is --

"Three Meta-Monadological Models in Historical Dialectics".

The Title of Part III. A. is --

"The Historical Dialectic of the Meta-Monadology of Human-Social Formation(s)".

Part III. A. presents a "purely-qualitative" dialectical-mathematical model of the history of human social formation(s), that both reconstructs the human social past, and also "pre-constructs" the future, according to the 'meta-monadological principle", i.e., posits
connotative/intensional predictions of future historical developments.

This model uses a self-reflexive function ["Seldon Function"] formulated in the ideographical language of the Foundation Encyclopedia Dialectica First Dialectical Ideography.

It also presents the same model narratively, and diagrammatically.

Part III. A. features a new diagrammatic idiom, not present previously in this series, that allows the "hybrid" socio-ontological categories to be co-presented together with the "arche'" ontological category, and the "self-hybrid" ontological categories.

Part III. A. also introduces a generalization of the "formal
subsumption" versus "real subsumption" distinction, that applies generally for Historical Dialectics.

Marx presented this distinction for the particular case of the "formal subsumption of labor by capital" versus the "real subsumption of labor by capital", in a draft chapter for Volume I of "Capital: A Critique of Political Economy" which Marx did not publish [see Karl Marx, Frederick Engels, Collected Works, volume 34, "Results of the Direct
Production Process", International Publishers, New York, 1994, pp. 355-471].

This concept is interesting,however, I do not believe it is directly related to our psycho history and is more closely related to the already established science created by de Mause.

Psychohistory Forum Participants,

Dear Psychology Lover,

It seems to me that deMause's theory is reductionist, an attempt to reduce human collective, inter-subjective, "meme-etic" historical dynamics to a Freudistic version of atomistic individual psychology.

I am not aware of any admission in deMause's theories of the emergent properties at the level of human collectivities.
