Introduction

• Two types of politics
• ancient
• modern

3
Modern politics

• Modern reality
• Physics as ideology of modern
• first science
• form of awareness of the modern age
• has privilege to define what is the real
• and what is nature

DELEGITIMATION OF GOD
LEGITIMATION OF NATURE

Modern politics

• Similarity between physics and political sciences
• Every revolution is jump out from the physics
• Lets be real, lets demand non-possible
  student movement slogan (1968)
• Jammer history of physics shows clearly that
  the introduction of the concept of force led to
  methodological unification of conceptual scheme
  of science
• Question of reallity Hobbes,Leibniz,Popper
  etc.

5
Mechanicism

• in all political doctrines - most of all in
  liberalism
• Common pionts (Barber)
• atomism
• indivisiability
• commensuaribility
• mutual exclusivity
• sensationalism

6
New concept of reality

• French revolution - concept of mechanical reality
  brought on power
• Political emancipation and recogniliation of
  individuals as citizens (citoyen) which form the
  state

7
Non-mechanicistic paradigm in political science

• HEGEL Individual is not as a body member of
  the state as a thing - It exists through
  the state in the state through individuals
• MARX stand point of the new is human society
  social humanism
• reification of human relation should be analyzed
  and overcome in process of human emancipation
• people are not conscious-less bodies, but always
  consideration of human relations members of
  state are not atoms

8

• GRAMSCI mechanicism is based on believe
  in forsa delle cose
• concezione meccanicistica sia stata un religione
  di subalterni
• mehanicism goes together with stable relations
  between rulers and the governed

• yesterday -
• subject was
• una cosa thing

• today
• persona storica,
• un protagonista

Anti-mechanicistic paradigm

• FOUCALT
• anti-mechanicistic and anti-monarchistic view of
  politics
• individual as a primary effect of power
• individual is an effect of the power and at the
  same time this effect is the element of its
  articulation. Individual, which is constituted
  from the power as at the same time its bearer.

10
FOUCALT

• juridical monarchy historical form of
  perception of power in the West
• we still havent cut off the head of the king
  !!!
• we shall try to rid ourselves of a juridical
  and negative representation pf power, and cease
  to conceive of it in terms of law, prohibition,
  liberty and sovereignity

11
Anti-mechanicistic paradigm

• LEGGETT in quantum mechanics events
  dont happen, whereas in our
  every day world-view they
  certainly do
• but in fact quantum physics simply works, it
  functions.
• BOHM plasmon - term to illustrate how
  every particle will ultimately be found
  to be the reification of a collective
  vibration of still finer structure.

12
Classical reality vs. quantum physics

• SPACE
• WHOLE
• MEASUREMENT
• SUBJECTIVISM
• CAUSALITY
• CONCEPT of TIME

13
Classical reality vs. quantum physics
14
MEASUREMENT

• In quantum theory - creator of facts and meaning
• there is only sequence of results of measurements
• atomic systems should not even be thought of as
  possessing definite properties in the absence of
  a specific experimental set-up designed to
  measure these properties (Leggett)
• bridge between micro and macro-world

15
SUBJECTIVISM

• Popper and Bohm intrusion subjectivism in
  physics
• The result of observation is to change the
  meaning and therefore change the being (Bohm)
• analysis is a change in the thing analyzed

16
CAUSALITY CONCEPT OF TIME

• Quantum theory has broken classical concept of
  time and causality.
• quantnum mechanic has no casual explanation
  Bohm
• Jammer elimination of the concept of
  force from physics would lead to
  emancipation of science as a whole from
  bondage of causality

17
Key future of the quantism

• Self-reflective character
• Three types of knowledge
• Quantum physics
• Marxism
• Psychoanalysis

18
CONCLUSION

• Mechanicism
• core structure of common sense since Newton times
• not outside of the political sciences but
  inherent to it
• Politics is not sensual object (not a thing), but
  res publica, without res on mechanical way of
  thinking.
• We need NEW CONCEPT to legitimize this
  non-mechanical position through physics
• As a scientific phenomena
• Or as a real reality

19
CONCLUSION

• New concept based on quantizem
• Politics as being its own reality
• Object of political science as a whole, whole
  political reality, reality existed through
  politics
• Allows us to denaturalize the political science
  and world of politics
• to replace all terms which relate to universe of
  our everyday experience
• But we need new theory
• Non leaner
• Non-mechanical
• Non-deterministic

New political practice (reified political
relations on de-reified way)
