Basic information technologies and spatial hierarchy of behavioral “rules”: comparative genesis

From the standpoint of informatics and cybernetic modeling of the process of development of the selfcontrolling hierarchical-network system of Humanity, the comparative genesis of basic information technologies (BIT) and the spatial hierarchy of behavioral “rules” of adaptive behavior (AB) is considered, which at the stages of complication of Homo sapiens looks like this: communities at the level of proto-civilizations, relying on their own version of BIT speech/language, determine possible forms of AB of their own individuals, oriented towards maximizing their energy efficiency, by assigning fixed “prescriptive rules” of AB (i.e. equality-type restrictions) to their own families, and “limit rules” (i.e. inequality-type restrictions) to their own clans, establishing the boundaries of possible implementations of their AB. With further growth of the hierarchy of the Humanity system, structures additionally arise on the basis of new BITs that expand behavioral “limit rules” to levels: BIT of writing/reading – local civilizations, BIT of text replication – regional civilizations, BIT of local computers – Planetary Civilization, BIT of telecommunications/networks – Civilization of Near-Earth Space. The special role of the family, implementing the only prescriptive rules of the AB, against the background of the limit rules formed by larger communities, and the importance of the correspondence of conscious actions of people to implement the AB to the algorithms of the “unconscious” AB of the self-controlling system of Humanity are noted.
