The driving force and source of development of the person and his communities

Despite a certain progress in development of human communities according to development of self-consciousness, the essence of human consciousness which is expressed in dualism, more precisely, in divergent life-aspirations of the lowest and highest form of consciousness does not disappear anywhere, and cannot be substantially modified.

Both these parties of consciousness continuously conflict both in the person, and in the interpersonal relations: discontent with, visible inability to change quickly, the felt limitation of intelligence, abilities, etc.; the envy and hatred to competitors instantly would rip to shreds any human community if not the state with its institutes.

Nevertheless, each person manifests also qualities of the highest consciousness which are expressed not only in the intellectual and production sphere, but also in inquisitiveness, various religious and cultural forms and also in the affectional relations, somehow: friendship, love, experiences for relatives, for the fatherland, etc.

If the relationship between people on the basis of self-awareness slowly but steadily develops, then the lowest consciousness in the person remains unchanged.

Therefore, the ideal persons do not appear, and the lowest consciousness, despite any form of its disguise, acts at any stage of the development of human consciousness, being expressed in deep-rooted egoism (egocentrism) – personal and corporate, hypocrisy (masking), suspiciousness (caution), contempt for people of other circle (mistrust to other communities), animal instincts concerning an opposite sex, etc.

Thus, the highest consciousness in the course of its growth begins to oppose itself to the lowest consciousness more and more effectively – the struggle between them just distinguishes the person from animals, being manifested at early stages of development is hardly noticeable, and then – all stronger and stronger.

In other words, the growth of self-awareness, or raising the level of the highest consciousness in the struggle with the lowest consciousness, gradually, but with an acceleration, expands the human sphere of activity, ensuring the permanent development both certain persons in their generations, and the development of their communities.

With the growth of self-awareness and, thus, the increase in the self-sufficiency of civilization, the action of the majority of the above-mentioned natural factors are increasingly leveled, which means that they really manifest themselves as necessary external, but not the fundamental to the human consciousness.

Consequently, the intensive development of communities of the living beings – previously barely noticeable, and the main contribution to which was made by mutations (random changes in the genome) – begins only with the appearance in them of self-consciousness, and accordingly – with its interaction with the lowest (animal) consciousness, which does not disappear anywhere from these living beings. This interaction is expressed practically in incessant fight of these consciousness forms, merged together, as they mostly have opposite aspirations, what it was in detail told above about, i.e. their interaction mainly is expressed in hostility (antagonism).

As an example, can result in the manifestation of the antagonism of the lowest and highest consciousness is not in the class struggle of the oppressed masses and bloodsuckers-oppressors, – in those and other dominate the lowest consciousness, thereby stimulating mainly the struggle for survival, but not for the development of the community, – and informal intellectual opposition and the ruling elite, that mostly represent the struggle between the highest and lowest consciousness.

The faceless people masses get the development in the struggle of their representatives in power and in the informal intellectual opposition to power. Informal intellectuals, pursuing mainly goals that are contrary to the goals of representatives of the power elite, are compelled to appeal to the people, proving own rightness and anti-popular character of the oppressor-elite, and this elite, in turn, should justify themselves and stigmatize of rotten visionaries-nonconformists who can only talking, but not control and rule.

Thereby, peoples are willy-nilly are being involved by energy of this struggle into forward motion, which can be and evolutionary at the consent of elite with informal opposition for these or those compromises in the interests of the working masses, but may jump abruptly into another channel (fracture) if such consent is absent, that in the popular consciousness is reflected as an injustice, transforming into a more or less successful attempt to remove the ruling elite from power when the suitable conditions come.
