摘要
20世纪40年代以来,自然科学和社会科学的发展,特别是复杂性系统科学的研究,揭示出从无机的物质世界到有机的生命世界,再到复杂的社会经济生活,都是从无序走向有序的过程,而对称性破缺是系统走向有序的主要机制。作者通过对非线性、突现、分层和自组织等对称破缺现象的考察,指出对称性破缺在本体论、认识论和方法论方面的教益,进而从系统学的角度阐明对称性破缺是自然界演化发展的一条基本原理。
Since the 1940＇ s,the development of natural science and social science ,especially the study of complex system science, has shown that from the inorganic material world to the organic life world and then to the complex social and economical world,it is a process from disorder to order, whose main mechanism is symmetry breaking. The paper studies the phenomena of non - linearity, emergence, bifurcation and self organization, pointing out that symmetry breaking has ontological, epistemological and methodological significance, and thus proves that symmetry breaking is a fundamental principle of the evolvement of nature.
