Abstract

It is shown that it is possible to describe the processes of self‐organization and disorganization by using only the probability theory laws and without involving physical concepts. It is shown that our approach allows us to make a significant step towards solving a well‐known problem: what makes our world develop and become more complex despite the law of entropy increasing. The existence of a critical level of organization in an open system is mathematically substantiated. It is shown that exceeding the critical level of organization for the Earth is responsible for the formation of global destructive tendencies, including natural disasters, ecological crisis and other large‐scale cataclysms on the planet. A method for preventing global destructive tendencies is proposed. The method is based on the theory developed in this paper.
