The Mathematical-Historical Principles and the Evolution of Liberty
Fernández Bolívar, Víctor José
History -- Philosophy
The
mathematics of history is a human reality. We are facing an undeniable fact,
the logical organization of the events of history, without a pure mathematics
that is not derived from one that is integral or from a differential equation
but, within the mathematical concept of applied sciences where pure results are
not achieved with the �Standard Meter�, the model unit of measure that is in
Paris that, although it is kept hermetically sealed, is always under the
influence of that which is material.�
Remembering
one of Plato�s maxim: �Vital force has been given to us by God, so that, by
observing the sky�s circular motion, we may apply it to the cyclical form of
the kingdom of our own thoughts, for they both are their relatives, the
difference being that ours are perturbed whilst theirs are free from all
perturbation�.
SOCIAL CYCLE
At
the beginning of the cycle we warned of a remarkable change.� The ancient
nation reduced to a state of servitude has remarkably improved its position and
already has a small participation in the harvest. From this moment on, its
material and spiritual progress accentuates itself. Since the worker obtains a
benefit from his work, his interest increases and, accordingly, improves his
tools, worked more and production intensifies.�
By
this phenomenon repeating itself in all servants, the result is a general
increase in wealth. Some more intelligent or more active, specialize. This is
how trades are born. The use of money is extended.� Thus, wealth, which was
then motionless in the hands of the dominating class, can pass on to the
servile class and, a minority, made up of the most intelligent, active or
fortunate, begins to become wealthy. With this, there appears a new wealthy
aristocracy.
We
observe that the ancient division of society changes, giving room so that part
of the ancient servants go on to constitute a middle class. One of these
minorities, already wealthy, will make up the new aristocracy of wealth or high
middle class. Very soon, the high middle class will not be happy with its
wealth and will want to invest in city governments. From this moment on, the
struggle between the new aristocracy and the old one begins.�
This
struggle will also follow a law, which is the one we know as �The Law of two
steps forward and one step backwards� or Oscillating Law. In this struggle, the
new aristocracy is supported by the nation from where it came. Four centuries
after the beginning of the cycle, the new aristocracy is the winner and the
government of the city is turned over to it. At this time, the middle class or petit
bourgeoisie, has organized in unions or trades, and also wants its place in
the government. One new struggle begins between these classes and the high
middle class, and through successes and reversals, always obeying the
oscillating law, the petit bourgeoisie finally joins the city
governments.
