Urgency of the research. The depth and unpredictability of the global processes of modern development have become a challenge for science, the objects of study of which are open and complex systems. Their decisive feature is the ability to self-organization and self-development. Understanding of the general principles underlying the processes of self-organization in various systems, including social ones, requires a new level of comprehension and non-orthodox approaches. They are shown by synergetics as a new methodology of cognition and a system of creative, extraordinary thinking.
Target setting. The separation of synergetic thinking as a separate type of cognitive theoretical activity leads to the comprehension and understanding of the development process of complex systems capable of self-organization, in their internal logic that has a creative, productive potential.
Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. The problem of synergetics as a scientific discipline and methodological system in Ukraine was considered in works by V. Kremen, V. Ilyin, V. Proleev, I. Dobronravova, S. Sysoev, L. Gorbunova, L. Shashkova. Principles and methods of synergetics were covered in the publications of A. Yerokhin, K. Mainzer, R. Evstigneeva, I. Prigogine, I. Stengers, V. Arshinov and others. The problem of synergetic thinking in education was solved in the works of E. Moren, O. Knyazeva, and others.
The research objective. Due to the inconsistency, unpredictability, dynamics of the modern development, the need for enhanced creative potential of thinking, as a special value idea in the comprehension of social processes, is strengthened. Throughout its history, human creates the world of his own existence, thus solving a completely creative task. Historical changes in the human world, evidenced by the development of culture, clearly confirm this situation. The solution to this problem is possible due to synergetic thinking, for which the factor of self-organization and internal structuring of the cognitive process is inherent. In the framework of this article, the task is to identify synergetic foundations of the contemporary world picture and its comprehension.
The statement of basic material. Synergetics is a science of self-organization of complex systems - biogeocoenosis, social systems, consciousness, human thinking, information and technology complexes. Synergetics seeks to create a "single field" of interdisciplinary communication, to form the principles of a scientific picture of the world. The unevenness of complex systems under certain conditions gives rise to the self-organization of both natural and social processes. As a doctrine of self-development, synergetics rebuilds contemporary worldview and thinking, through which one can understand the instability, nonlinearity, and openness of the modern world in its uniqueness and integrity.
Conclusions. The phenomenon of synergetics is characterized by the potential of creativity, since creative thinking in the process of its activities goes from chaos to order, from the established structure to innovation. Synergetic thinking is the most productive for the comprehension of the semantic space of the natural and socio-cultural world in the process of development of its systems capable of self-organization. Synergetics opens the constructive principles of building and combining relatively simple structures into complex ones. To construct a complex system one needs to creatively comprehend and choose the right direction for the further development of both society and personality.
Keywords: synergetics, thinking, chaos, order, creativity, system, self-organization.
