Proactive Consciousness: Consciousness as Proactive Actions through Reinforcement Learning through Cooperative Organization

This book explores the evolving landscape of consciousness studies, moving beyond the limitations of current theories. Existing biological models often focus too narrowly on neurology, while information-processing models remain too abstract. To bridge this gap, this book presents a new interdisciplinary framework: the CORLPA (Cooperative-Organization-Reinforcement-Learning-Proactive-Actions) model. The central premise of this model is a fundamental distinction between the non-living and the living. As stated in Newton's third law of motion, inanimate objects merely react to actions. In contrast, conscious, living beings can react proactively; they can anticipate and navigate forthcoming events to ensure survival and growth.

Depolarization and Gloconomy: Towards World Harmony

This book addresses two significant aspects of the world. First, the world is experiencing a significant polarization of viewpoints and behaviors on a large scale. Second, the world has blindly drifted from localization to globalization of trade. After explaining the cause and evils of polarization and globalization, the book proposes two simple and practical solutions. An appropriate modification in the sitting arrangement of members in meetings can reduce polarization. Allowing transactional taxes to depend on the distance between the source and destination can promote a gloconomy, an economy that is neither too localized nor too globalized. The proposed solutions are not the best or the only possible solutions to the problems, but they are definitely worth considering.
