Abstract

The current scale and complexity of human, technological activities have caused significant problems in society, to individuals and the environment. This may be seen as the consequence of the evolving, historical application of the relation between the invention/emotion driven technology and society or Industrial Revolutions. This relation is expressed as a conditional shown in detail in Figure 1 as an instinctively applicable problem-solving scheme. The alternative is the deliberately applicable problem-solving scheme in Figure 2. The suggestion is to introduce the alternative into wider use, if feasible, possible, or to question the elements of the conditional, both of which may help to alleviate the problems. An analytical method and the application of emotions are introduced into consideration of highly qualitative issues in society.
