The genesis of strategy can be observed across various human pursuits, such as religion, creative arts, knowledge, and economy. At its core, strategy encompasses specific belief systems that shape the conditions and thoughts concerning life, growth, and death. Philosophers are often seen as intelligent visionaries and thinkers who, unfortunately, faced the tragedy of being labeled ‘eccentric’ or ‘ridiculous’ for their unique thought patterns during their lifetimes. Many philosophers went unappreciated while they were alive.
The genesis of strategy began with Roman and Greek philosophers around 600 BC. Philosophy evolved as people started to question their purpose in the world, giving rise to numerous schools of thought.
The Genesis of Philosophy: Theories
Significant philosophical theories encompassing the Genesis of Philosophy include:
- Rationalism: This theory asserts that humans are intellectual beings capable of questioning and analyzing various aspects of life. Parmenides, a Greek philosopher, is considered the first rationalist. Other notable rationalists include Plato, Descartes, and Locke. Rationalism involves establishing a premise and attempting to deduce it. Empiricists, who believed in the opposing school of thought known as empiricism, also emerged during this time.
- Skepticism: This approach involves continuous questioning and testing to acquire knowledge. The theory was first articulated by a Greek philosopher named Pyrrho and later popularized by Sextus Empiricus.
- Existentialism: This theory is based on the central idea that human nature does not exist, but rather unique individual traits do. It was first proposed by Soren Kierkegaard, who believed that truth is subjective. He argued that truth, particularly regarding religious beliefs, should be passionately questioned by each individual.
- Structuralism: This approach contends that every field, from religion to science, is a complex system made up of numerous interconnected elements. It was first articulated by Ferdinand de Saussure in the 19th century and gained acceptance across all major fields. However, it also faced opposition from a group who believed that structures could not be transcended. They were collectively known as poststructuralists.
The genesis of strategy continued beyond the ‘Enlightenment’ era, which saw the emergence of political philosophers questioning the workings of governments. Another influential branch of philosophy pertained to socio-economic theories, which included two opposing schools of thought put forth by Adam Smith and Karl Marx. The former advocated for free trade and the removal of restrictions, while the latter supported the tightening of governmental control. These ideas laid the foundation for communism and capitalism.
