Abstract
This work refers to sustainability (SDG - Sustainable Development Goals) highlighting the idea of ​​harmony of life along the lines of the biological model at various levels and of nature alike, thus defining the concept of bioharmonism. The purpose of this paradigm is to find a way of transition in the contemporary societal change, connecting the natural sciences, more precisely the life sciences, with the social sciences, more concretely along the lines of holistic approaches to the evolution of human society. The objective of this point of view is related to sustainability, resilience and planetary health, which indicates the need to analyse planetary bioharmony and transpose the model to the structure and functionality of human society through the complex, unitary and coherent approach of the bioharmonization process. The study analyses the issue, through: the definition and role of societal bioharmonism, then the argument related to the transition to another world using the proposed path, based on specific notions, principles and laws, and finally, the description of some lines of application of the pillars of bioharmonism. A series of solutions are highlighted that can contribute conceptually to the evolution of contemporary society, to the convergence of anthroposystems with ecosystems by interconnecting the aspects of the biological revolution with those specific to the information age. The solutions aim at societal bioharmonization supported by its specific pillars, which through integration and emergence lead to a dynamic balance. The state of equilibrium, sustainability can be highlighted at a systemic level by the directions of action in which the bioharmonization complementarities that indicate the Environment and biodiversity in the economic equation, the Citizen in the social equation and Science in the political equation will be taken into account.

1. Introduction

The Contemporary society largely functions in the open space delimited by the paradigm of modernity, more correctly said the one of post-post-modernity. This includes an accent on sociologic, technologic or the other conditions that distinguish the Modern Epoch from everything that followed after it, including nuances of postmodern chaos. Therefore it is very important that researchers from interdisciplinary fields look for innovative solutions to the complex problems of today's world. In the present society, settled postmodernism represents a set of answers of intellectual, cultural, artistic, academic or philosophic order, i.e., solutions for nowadays post-post-modernism condition [1,2,3,4,5,6].
In brief, there is observed that the present social space may be a black box, not enough known and many times ignored, which makes opportune the demarche to understand the world on the basis of new paradigms. Thus, the demarche on the line of the conceptualist process becomes of great actuality and, now more than ever, when mankind becomes aware of the importance of knowledge, value without which we can’t imagine the 21st century society. This is the idea that represents the very mechanism of reporting to reality (be it a theoretical, institutional, linguistic or non-linguistic one). In the paper, in an essence synthesis, we are referring to a series of contributions to the quasi-unanimous idea to build the Knowledge society at planetary level. On long term we may intuit that information perpetual restructuring and harmonization may lead to an equivalent level to what might mean The Society of Consciousness [7,8,9,10,11,12].
Knowing that things are not easy to achieve, we position ourselves in the approach of this work to encourage freedom from conservatism and sometimes ignorance to have the chance to highlight the harmony of life and nature alike ("bio-eco-geo" type harmony). Of course, in this regards knowledge and tenacity may induce the courage to dare decipher nuances of the „mystery” of the contemporary reality. In this context innovating concepts, as an expression of a free and dynamic thinking, make it possible to accept and understand the world’s „bio-harmonism”. Therefore, at the beginning based on an empiric-scientific hope, there may be directed and then studied the societal model on balanced rut in the constants of the Living Planet and of the universal harmony [13,14,15,16,17].
Reality shows us preoccupations linked to the planet, i.e., during almost three decades UNO has reunited almost all the countries in the world at global summits regarding climate – called COP – meaning “Conference of parts”. Meanwhile, climate changes have passed from a statute of marginal problem to a global priority. In the year 2021 the 26th annual summit took place – being named COP26 and taking place in Glasgow. But there has been made only a small step forward on some problems, such as understanding to limit global heating, in order to adapt to the impact of climate changes and to provide funds in order to reach these objectives [18]. In other words, the problem remains, especially in relation to the world’s biggest polluters, which imposes new practical approaches, but based on theories and concepts with settlement potential.
In order to better understand „reality” there must be taken into account the typologies of the reality that we are currently discovering (added and combined realities), which renders more useful the concepts in the extended biologic-informational world [19]. As a landmark we have the spectrum of realities (Figure 1), from which there becomes essential to understand the physic, psychic (including by senses), spiritual realities, all of them more or less perceived around us, as a prime mystery still little distinguished, but that may correctly sustain parallel realities from virtual world that we are discovering in the 21st century.
In this not very optimistic context, the study proposes as general goal to bring its contribution to the already established ideas referring to the understanding of the sustainability process, theorizing by an applicative interpretation at societal level, of scientific-philosophic and integrative nature, reorientation through new concepts concerning the approaching contemporary reality [20,21,22,23]. We have in view the specificity of today’s world based on disordered informational explosion and with potential to generate deep disharmonies. There are described a series of conceptual pillars that aim to find mechanisms to prevent or remedy imbalances, by paradigmatic deepening necessary to generate certain complementary innovating harmonization demarches of structural elements of the human society.
The paper also has a part of theorized exemplification on the line of the bio-harmonization of the food manner in relation to the impact upon the environment at local, regional or planetary level, being mentioned new concepts and theories for the agri-food field, i.e., for the basic branch from the fields of applied biology for mankind, in the context of depletion of resources, of present demographic dynamics and climate changes.

2. Working Method

There has been made a diagnosis regarding elaborated concepts in sustaining the idea of bioharmonism at society level, but also focused on agri-food direction. There have been used previous publications that describe in detail every „pillar” of the bioharmonism, each of them on the basis of consistent bibliographic references [15,24,25,26,27,28,29]. Pragmatically, in the idea to bio harmonize, there are expressed applications and adaptations of the scientific demarche, constituting directions and specific working methods. They have been achieved during the last decade, by different projects and scientific papers, especially within diversified activities of the Center of eco-bio technologic researches from Transilvania University from Brasov (Romania).

3. Results

Regarding the evolution of society and the world as a whole, in many fields there is talk about postmodern society, but also about its limits. We may analyze at the beginning the fact that, in this context, neoliberalism, issued in the United State in the years *70-80, that pleaded for free movement of goods almost all over the worlds is not a novelty. Then globalization, that is the description of late economic capitalism, i.e., of corporate capitalism, which makes marketing become the main instrument of the economic strategy, and not only that. Postindustrial society, or informational society, or postmodern society mean on this trend a lot of restlessness and deep changes in societal groups, in cultural, in political activities and so on. Multiculturalism, tolerance, media culture, great narratives in recent years are just a few issues of the postmodernist imaginary. Let’s just mention François Lyotard, Michel Foucault, and Jean Baudrillard among the main philosophers who have established and described the postmodern condition [4,30,31]. In other words, what we mean is that postmodernism means everything and nothing specific and from here the necessity of continuous searches. Beyond philosophy, conceptual approaches go towards economy, social, ecologic and, of course, politics, covering, as we all know, extremely diverse names and fields (from biology to physics, etc., up to sociology or politology). We hope that the „seed” we are planting by the demarche centered on the integrative idea of BIOHARMINISM has a special place too [15].
In this regard, we have tried an approach from the perspective of the balanced model of the „living” („bios” = referring to life) and of the planetary life as a whole, on the ground of harmonization of imbalances caused by human activity, in the desire to find solutions for an ideational and balanced ordering of the societal post-modernism. Starting from the general to the particular, the analyses in decoding or solving as much as possible the mystery of the model of the dynamic balance from different environmental and societal levels have had as rising problem general aspects of philosophical order („biosophia) even since before the 2000s, in order to create a framework which, through successive mechanisms of integration have made possible the theorization of the idea of „bio-harmonism” (Table 1).
Passing from a pragmatic level of interpretation of the complexity of the contemporary human society the frequent observation is that a consumption society imposes its rules, being fed with what is imposed or considered as value. It becomes more and more evident the excessive consumption of material products, but especially of harmful media products, of cultural products of obsolete value, which enhances upsetting society at all its levels. Consequently, it is imposed to find instruments in order to counteract the effects and to endlessly rethink the methods to outline a model and a common language, even with perfection limits, by preserving a somewhat unitary coherence between different compartments of the society. In this direction, we have oriented towards the specie’s primary need, directly or indirectly found in approximately 70 % of its preoccupations, namely: FOOD. Conceptualization on direction of the bio-harmonist paradigm of the branch producing and processing food made it possible the inventoried theorizing in essence in Table 2 [21,24,25,27,28].
The specifications in the tables indicate a manner to try new experiments, new formulas and economic-social, cultural but especially political strategies of new approach in order to recorrelate the impact of the human activity with concrete post-modern reality. The answer to the new approaches will maybe be found before the birth of a new cultural epoch, with a different status from the post-post-modernity one, with a configuration, a recalibration of values and new strategies that may reflect a real re-enter the womb [4,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39]. All these taking into account what may remain for many of us a nostalgia largely invalidated by the reality of the consumer society: the VALUE. And why not value as a result of the approach through bioharmonism and its theoretical and applicative concepts that have the potential to ensure the emergent transition, respectively the appearance of the new in regarding the world, at a level of superior order (Figure 2).
The current socio-economic and political model begins to have too many gaps, including of cultural and educational nature [40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49]. That is why a better harmonized ordering having the potential of in avalanche restructuring the societal components is opportune in the idea to „make peace” with the environment, with economy and ourselves on the line of fundamental reconsidering the continuity of balanced life on Earth (Figure 3).
The theoretic relocation by innovative concepts leads towards the bio harmonization of the evolution of the contemporary society that, systemically speaking, has the potentiality to generate the SOCIETAL HOMEORESY. This process means in fact a concept that represents the property, or the state, of a system to maintain its dynamic balance, having a certain degree of antinomy, but also being appropriate to the dynamics of the human society face to the idea of societal homeostasis in the sense referring to the property of a system to maintain a static balance of the initial conditions [15,17,50].
Taking into account, as we have been emphasizing in other occasions, that „routine and prejudices can’t suffocate endlessly ideas” and that „if we learn from changes in the world then we will see the knowledge loop that will generate bridges by punching between today and tomorrow”, we are convinced that the idea of bio-harmonism, with its corresponding basic pillars emphasized in the paper, becomes an important landmark within the context of accelerated changes of the world and of the modern human society.

4. Conclusions

BIOHARMONISM, by the ideational newness, proposes a reorientation of the current society approach on a rut balanced and harmonized in the „Living Planet” constants and model, having as a result the delineation of a variant of socio-economic and cultural model able to sustain the current society, mainly characterized by the Biologic Revolution in an expansion Informational Era.
Processes and mechanisms of bioharmonization aim to bioeconomic action balanced in relation to technical creation at 4.0. Industry level and with the corresponding cultural and psychosocial implications, in essence outlining the understanding of the societal development by taking the harmony of the PLANETARY „LIVING” AS AN ANALYTICAL BASIS AND MODEL, which may be sustained by conceptual, doctrinaire and philosophical pillars of the perceived Reality specific to the today’s world.
The SOCIETAL BIOHARMONIZATION expresses a system of complementary equations that holistically imposes the Environment in the economic equation, the Citizen in the social equation and the Science in the political equation, elements that, by multiple and emergent integration induce, from systemic perspective, the state of „societal homeoresy” and, from political perspective, the bioharmonist ideology, as source of doctrinaire regeneration in a changing world.

PARADIGM DESCRIPTION IN SYNTHESIS
The Theory of Bioharmonism (2019) It is the theory that contains a series of concepts, laws and principles that put in a new order the creation of humanity, in essence representing a new perspective of mankind development on the basis of the nonlinear model of the „Living planet” and of the existential triad (I, E, S), taking as landmark “Life” and “Living” in general („BIOS”) in a dynamics of societal HARMONIZATION. The approach aims the sustainability process in relation to the idea of bioeconomy and systemic effectiveness, enhancing the dynamic balance in the current society, in essence characterized by the contemporary Biologic Revolution convergent with the Informational Era, in pre-established evolution towards the Knowledge Society and, on long term, towards the Society of Consciousness, everything in a cumulative ideational and semantic expression „bio+harmonization”, i.e., of „bioharmonism”.
Bioharmonist ideology (2019) It represents the totality of philosophical, moral, religious ideas and concepts, where Information (I) is existential basis with a programmed and codified dynamics, that has the capacity to bring in a harmonious whole the scientific data of the environment model of „unity in diversity" and of the current biological-informational society, conformably linking the mankind development to resources, to knowledge, to dynamic balance and societal values, doctrinaire and ideological shaping „BIOHARMONISM”, with a political position of balanced Centre-rights and accumulation of wealth, based on the convergence and integration of elements of modern-ethic liberalism, of reformed environmentalism and of liberal democracy.
Infogronic Law (2019) It refers to an existential phenomenon in continuous dynamics in space and time regarding Information (I) as ontic value and in perpetual dynamics at all processual and phenomenological levels, based on a series of axioms concerning the „volution” phases (evolution, revolution) with reference at the ontic triad having INFOrmation (I) as basis, next to Energy (E) and Matter (Substance -S-), in multiple and complementary integration based on the science of system coexistence, from the general theory of integration (i.e., in INTEGRONIC dynamics), intuitively and observably resulting „ INFOGRONIC” processes of structuring or de-structuring codified and programmed universal information, with expression in the conceptual, spiritual and virtual real world.
Integronic management (2013) It is an applicative scientific demarche by which the combination of concepts and resources necessary to produce goods and services emphasizes the sustainability process, pursuing mainly systemic effectiveness, based on the side on bio- economic efficiency and on profit. These ones are constituted in a managerial activity that studies integrated systems (due to their coexistence, in a flow of multiple integrations, in a concatenation of systems) and integration processes, having in view global elements and facts as a whole in conformity with the general Theory of Integration, considering thus complex system piloting, also represented by enterprises of “Environment-Economy” type, as an organizational management with synchronic and syncretic working basis with synergic effects (S3), expressed by a holistic process of emergent integration, practically developing a managerial system of superior order with optimized parameters and „bioharmonized” yield.
The Theory of
Ecoemergent Integronics (2002)
It refers to a theoretical ensemble of hypothesis, laws and concepts, organized in a logical demarche that describe and explain the coexistence of systems and the study of processes of multiple integration (or with moments of disintegration) in syncretic, synchronic and synergic conditions (S3) with INTEGRONIC effect (the general theory of integration) expressed by the appearance of the new of higher order, i.e., „EMERGENT” effect at the level of the planetary ECOsystem and of its components, which in a cumulative semantic expression „eco+emergent” indicates the space of manifestation of processes of multiple integration, respectively by an integronic dynamics, which in synthesis expresses a type of complex integration of different types of ecosystems: „Ecoemergent integronics”.
Biosophy
(1998)
It is a secondary philosophical subdomain that refers to the „philosophy of the living” or of the planetary biological and ecological, being a general conception about the world and life that puts in the foreground and pursues a deep awareness of the relation between the existence of the „living” and the evolution of Nature, on scientific basis and on a set of methodological principles, in relation to life needs and development of the society, conceptually connecting „Cosmic Primordial Information” („divine”, in theological narration) with the informational program of terrestrial life and implicitly of the genetic code, in essence analyzing the effect of the connections and processes of societal bio harmonization under all its material and spiritual aspects.

CONCEPT DESCRIPTION IN SYNTHESIS
Genetics of Biocenoses (2017) It is a complementary conceptual component of genetics on ecological and existential direction (considering as basis the triad I,E,S), by which it is pursued the heredity process at biocenoses level centered on the inheritance of relations and behaviors between species through mechanisms of cohesion and genetic adaptation, process based on the „codified program of the living” concerning informational interconnections between species and populations, having as finality the decoding of gene circuit within the frame of a bioharmonisation process specific to the „interrelation polygenofund” that, directly or indirectly, emphasizes biocenosis heredity.
Bioeconomic animal breeding (2016) It is the concept that sustains the to refocus the activity of animal production by applying bio- economy principles in order to renew and transform the field of animal breeding on direction of optimizing the yield and systemic efficacy by solving energy bioconversion and by biotechnological transformations; it is based on change of paradigm regarding cybernetic regulations and connection of the environment to the economic equation, generating thus the potential of sustainability and of eco-development, de facto remodeling the zootechnic technical-scientific and managerial framework in the idea to obtain „bioharmony” with Nature and Society, having as a pragmatic result the achievement of products of animal origin with superior nutritive qualities and health generating capacity, ensuring food security.
Modular Agriculture (2010) It is the concept of polyvalent integration of „bio-eco-geo” type that has in view the biologic and ecologic management of certain modular structures of the territorial landscape, in function of geographic nature and marketing, having as a result to obtain products of vegetal and animal origin, of alimentary and culinary processing in a diversity of grouped modules: either in macro modules of agro-ecosystem type, or in micro modules of the type of specific constructions with characteristics of controlled environment and space, of vertical farm type, of production laboratories in cellular agriculture and others.
Gastronomic Engineering (2008) It is the concept that treats on engineering principles of the third step of the food act (after agriculture and food industry), respectively the culinary production demarche, approached by a multiple integration, scientific, technical and managerial one, that complementarily gathers the demarche of the gastronomy, gastrotechnics and food sciences and technologies, practically resulting a new discipline in itself, the one to study specific activities to the restauration system, that includes the totality of units of public food, but also culinary units within the structures of tourist reception.
Ecosanogenesis
(concept of „Total Health”) (1998)
It is the complementary concept „Health-Environment” referring to the dynamics of generation or of non-deterioration of the living species health regardless biological ranking and ecological organization, having as methodological basis the harmonization of the economic efficiency with systemic efficacy, expressed by the „man-product-nature” pragmatic axis; the concept highlights the idea that there is NOT possible the existence of a healthy man and/or of a healthy animal (indicated by the concept „One Health”) in a sick natural environment (unbalanced), shaping the general idea of „integronic health”, i.e., of the convergence and multiple integrations with emergent effect, concerning man’s life quality (in real world, but also mental health in virtual world), sustained by the interdependence of the balance of the health estate, both of all plant and animal species and of the no deterioration of the environment (having as simplified expression: total health generation at the level of ecosystem „Total Health” or ecosystemic health generation, in short, the notion and concept of: „ECOSANOGENESIS”).
