- W245876987 abstract "Abstract Much of criminology rests on the fundamental framework laid out by Isaac Newton. Traditionally, criminology has often been examined in terms of the classical, neo-classical, positive school, on the one hand, or, on the other, consensus, pluralist, critical. We offer a more fundamental distinction: classical-materialist paradigm compared to a process-information paradigm. The former is rooted in Newtonian physics; the latter, in the findings of quantum and quantum holographic theory. It is not to say that there is not already some compatibility of the new paradigm with elements of thought from some theorizing in current criminology. Much of criminology, too, does not have a subject; rather, it relies on the determinism of Newtonian physics. Here, ultimately, everything is orderly, predictable and determinable. It is time for a Kuhnian scientific revolution, a paradigm shift at the ontological level. Accordingly, in this article, we provide: the differences between the two approaches, a reconceptualizing of the subject, and brief examples, snippets rather than a full theory, of a process-information paradigm at work.1IntroductionThe legacy of Newtonian physics is ubiquitous. Originally developed to apply to the more materialistic sciences, it has been embraced as an unquestioned ontology by mainstream and a good part of critical criminology. We look far and wide in quickly concluding its failure in the contribution to understanding and ameliorating crime. Yet, theorizing in criminology clings to the fundamental ontology developed over three centuries ago, irrespective of the frontal assault by Einstein's relativity theory (1905, 1915) and quantum mechanics (mature form developed from 1924-1928). The resurgents of rational choice theory and its variants, located within the physics of old, and with questionable assumptions of agency, is a clear indicator that old theorizing insists, be it old wine in new bottles. It is time to rethink fundamental ontology to take into consideration the new sciences, especially quantum theory, which, to this day, has had none of its fundamental postulates disproven, even though it is seen as a weird science, and defying conventional logic. Nevertheless, quantum theory has contributed to much of contemporary electronics and to the current development of quantum computers. Holography theory, developed in the 1940s by Dennis Gabor and in the physics community by't Hooft, Susskind, and Bekenstein in the 1990s, too, is leaving a major impact but has been conspicuously absent in the social sciences, outside the work of Pribram (1991), Wendt (2010), and Bradley (1998, 2006, 2010). Criminology is plainly out of it when it comes to recent developments in other disciplines.There was a time that it was thought that the quantum realm only pertained to the very small, the world of the atomic and subatomic; the macro level was seen as quite adequately explained by Newtonian physics. This Heisenberg cut between the micro and macro is no longer viable. Quantum dynamics have macro effects and thus must be incorporated in any bonafied study in the social sciences.There has been some sharing of ecological space between the physics of the quantum and philosophy and sociology. To suggest a few. Leibniz's notion of the nomad is often cited as compatible with aspects of quantum theory (Nakagomi, 2006, 2003; Globus, 2007; Wendt, 2010). Shimony's early article (1965) demonstrates a compatibility of Alfred Whitehead's (1925, 1929) writings with early quantum mechanics in his notion of an actual occasion and concrescence, an appearing. Bergson, in 1896, anticipated by three decades some of the discoveries of the more mature quantum mechanics in his analysis of the vibratory nature of all entities, the process of instantiation of perceptions, and in holographic theory in his conceptualization of consciousness in things (see also Robbins, 2000, 2006; Capek, 1971). Deleuze and Guattari (1987) jointly, and Deleuze (1986, 1989) in his late two-volume books on Cinema, in their notions of plane of immanence, becoming, assemblages, blocs of space time, are accommodative. …" @default.
