Abstract
V originále
For most of us, fhe Word evolution in associated with the name Charles Darwin. In this study, the concept of evolution will be employed in a much broader sense than in that of Darwin. Evolution will be understood not only as a spontaneous constitutive actvity of the "big bang", which shapes fhe uneverse including the Earth, but also as human activity creating culture. Schematically speaking, evolution will be understood as natural and cultural "construology", which produces forms, order, memory and informationen. Since the cultural system is only formed by the reconstructionof older, naturally created structures of the planet Earth, it is evident that cultural evolution does not fit in the framework of natural evolution.
