A xystematic model is created in explicating the form and non-form structures and the underlying human dimensions of the general xystem of communication. In this approach, the role of composite cultures is emphasized, and the world of meaning constructed directly and indirectly upon the bases of ontology and axiology is stressed as well. The general xystem investigated incorporates the conventional aspects of communication -- sender, receiver, channel, feed-back, the encoding and decoding of the messages, and communicational competence. Since these aspects of communication are all manifestations of human cultures, the general grand xystem of culture underlying any xystem of communication comprises the cores of Xystem X* (capitalism/scientific humanism, culture of sciences with the spirit of conquest), Xystem D* (classical cultural system, symbolic rationality with the spirit of tranquility), and Xystem Δ* (socialism/dialectical humanism, culture of dialectical rationality with the spirit of outward conquest). This model of communication is further enriched by the provision of a xystem of interpersonal network developed on the foundation of the operational sphere of mutuality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
