Defense of the human | Abdulwahab Al-Masiri

This book's studies address a methodological issue, which is the necessity of using complex models to interpret human phenomena and to move away from reductionist models. Complex models are those that do not rely on a single element to interpret phenomena but take into account several elements, including political, social, and economic, and even reach cultural and cognitive dimensions. And because the complex analytical model is multi-dimensional and multi-level, it can encompass most aspects of the phenomenon under study. The book includes a definition of cognitive models and the relationship between perception and reality, as well as a comparison between reductionist models and complex models. It also contains a section on the relationship of the indicator with each of these models. The book attempts to apply the interpretive approach through complex models to various and diverse cultural phenomena such as Freemasonry, capitalism, and anti-Semitism.
