Abstract: Abstract UniversalityUniversality and limited validity are challenging concepts in most human efforts to systematize our current understanding of science and culture, or, in a broader context, to better understand nature and human society. In this chapter, we discuss some of the advantages of considering these two types of complementary principles as manifestations of “abstract forces,” acting on any evolving process of describing phenomena, in fact, forming some of the most relevant, opposing, but co-existing features of a common framework of “understanding.”
