ABSTRACT
This article examines the two dominant economic systems of modern civilization—capitalism and socialism—as teleonomic phases of the civilization of power. Drawing on the principles of TeleoGeny, TeleoNomics, TechnoGeny, and TechnoNomics, the paper demonstrates that both systems are inherently limited, both rely on wage‑labor servitude, both belong to the epoch of combustion technologies, and both are approaching the end of their life cycles. Socialism collapsed naturally due to the exhaustion of its innovation mechanisms, while capitalism survives through artificially sustained stagnation compensated by wars, resource extraction, and ecological destruction. The article presents a teleogenic projection of Homo Virtualis and the Civilization of Love by 2036, based on the author’s Virtualics paradigm and the model of energy transformation validated by Lithuania’s development of non‑combustion energy technologies.
1. INTRODUCTION
The third decade of the 21st century is marked by an unprecedented civilizational rupture. Global instability, wars, energy crises, democratic erosion, and the collapse of social systems are not accidental phenomena but manifestations of the teleonomic agony of the civilization of power, arising from the exhaustion of combustion technologies and the breakdown of coercive economics.
The aim of this article is to conduct a teleonomic analysis of capitalism and socialism, reveal their structural limitations, and present a teleogenic projection of the Civilization of Love by 2036, grounded in the Homo Virtualis model.
1.1. Methodological Note
Given that the countries implementing capitalism and socialism have been extensively analysed in historical, economic, geographic, and scientific literature, this article intentionally avoids naming specific states. The analysis is teleonomic; therefore, its conclusions are fully sufficient for practical and civilizational insights without referencing individual national cases.
2. TELEOGENY AND TELEONOMICS: THE SCIENCE OF CIVILIZATIONAL DIRECTION
2.1. TeleoGeny – the laws of intrinsic origin
TeleoGeny explores the intrinsic origin of the human being and civilization. It reveals that the essence of humanity is creativity, meaning, connection, Love, and self‑governance—the teleogenic direction of Life.
2.2. TeleoNomics – the laws of direction and order
TeleoNomics examines how a system moves toward its intrinsic purpose. Civilization evolves:
- from coercion → to meaning
- from power → to Love
- from hierarchy → to self‑governance
- from combustion → to life‑based systems
- from the TechnoMankurt → to Homo Virtualis

3. TECHNOGENY AND TECHNONOMICS: THE NATURE OF WORK AND SERVITUDE
3.1. TechnoGeny – work as the activity of the soul
Work is the activity of the soul, not merely physical action. Creativity is the natural function of the human being.
3.2. TechnoNomics – the direction of technological evolution
Technologies must serve the soul rather than enslave it.
3.3. The TechnoMankurt – a hybrid of soul‑enslavement
Servitude is the enslavement of the soul, not the body. The TechnoMankurt is a human being executing foreign mental programs, disconnected from creativity and meaning.
4. CAPITALISM AND SOCIALISM AS SYSTEMS OF WAGE‑LABOR SERVITUDE
4.1. Wage labor as the core of the civilization of power
In both systems, the individual is compelled to sell time and life energy in exchange for survival. This constitutes teleonomic servitude.
4.2. The only difference is the type of master
|
System |
Master |
Logic of relations |
|
Capitalism |
private capital |
profit maximization |
|
Socialism |
the state |
planned production |
In both cases, the worker is not the owner of the fruits of their labor.
4.3. Why both systems collapse
- Socialism collapsed due to the exhaustion of its innovation cycle.
- Capitalism is collapsing due to ecological, social, and moral degradation.
5. THE TELEONOMIC ANATOMY OF CAPITALISM
5.1. Economic performance
Long‑term GDP growth:
- Socialism: ~3.55%
- Capitalism: ~3.1%
Capitalism is less productive but compensates through wars and resource extraction.
5.2. War as metabolism
Over the past 150 years, capitalism has generated more than 500 wars. War functions as its mechanism for opening markets, writing off debts, and renewing technologies.
5.3. The combustion civilization
Capitalism is rooted in combustion technologies—the Promethean fire civilization that produces wars, pollution, oligarchy, and climate crisis.
6. THE TELEONOMIC ANATOMY OF SOCIALISM
6.1. A system of collective benefit
Socialism was an economy of the common good, where added value returned to society.
6.2. Economic advantage
Socialism was more productive but collapsed due to teleonomic senescence—the stagnation of innovation.
6.3. The civilizational regression of 1991
After the collapse of socialism, societies regressed into an older, less efficient capitalist order.
7. THE TELEOGENIC PROJECTION OF THE CIVILIZATION OF LOVE BY 2036
7.1. The power of Life replaces the structures of power
Love is connection, creativity, meaning, and self‑governance—the teleogenic force of Life.
7.2. Homo Virtualis and the Global Brain
Homo Virtualis is the human of meaning, creativity, and self‑governance.
The Global Brain is the nervous system of civilization.
7.3. CoLo – the Artificial Intelligence of Love Logic
CoLo dismantles hierarchical power structures and restores family‑based self‑governance.
7.4. The 2036 threshold
By 2036, the combustion civilization ends and the Civilization of Love emerges.
8. CONCLUSIONS
- Capitalism and socialism are phases of the civilization of power.
- Both systems rely on wage‑labor servitude.
- Socialism was more productive but teleogenically immature.
- Capitalism is teleonomically chaotic and teleogenically empty.
- The Civilization of Love, Homo Virtualis, and CoLo form the teleogenic alternative for the period up to 2036.
