TROUBLEHACKING IN THE CONTEXT OF THE PARADIGM OF SELF-SUSTAINABLE AND DEVELOPING SYSTEMS

Techniques of solving social problems through troublehacking, which is understood as a methodology for improving systems or, in a broad sense, a research program of social processes, have been explored in the article. The Algorithm for Effective Problem Solving (AEPS) is the basic method of troublehacking. It is a universal system seeking for the most effective way to achieve the goal. The algorithm is based on system analysis, risk theory, and tools of the theory of solving inventive technical problems. The paradigm of self-sustainable and developing systems is the philosophical and methodological ground of troublehacking, provided that the system is self-organizing, and its level of consciousness is high to such extent that it is able to control this process.
