Abstract

The term “agonology in preventive and therapeutic dimension” is an abbreviation informating for application of science about struggle (agonology) in preventive and therapeutic dimension. Its rational use is limited by widespread lack of knowledge about this science. Preventive and therapeutic value of agonology primarily relates to i.a. to micro scale (an individual or a small group). This formula of agonology is typically applied in upper-medium scale to the victory of Mahatma Gandhi over the British Empire who masterfully used the non-violence (method to struggle without violence). It does not matter that the term “agonology in preventive and therapeutic dimension” historically emerged later than non-violence. Agonology is an interdisciplinary science which is still evolving and since 1991 its preventive and therapeutic dimension has been developing. Agonology analyses the effectiveness of methods incorporated into a defensive fight and formulates practical rules which do not tolerate any form of retaliation for physical or verbal aggression, or combination thereof that goes beyond necessary counteractive methods and measures which fall within the criteria of self-defence. As the most effective counteractive measure of even the most violent verbal aggression, agonology in preventive and therapeutic dimension recommends the method established by Buddha Sakyamuni. If it is assumed that peace is the greatest global welfare, then armed fights (wherever they take place) based on mutual destruction would inevitably lead to total destruction. This is just a matter of time. If it is believed that science is the second greatest global welfare, ignoring the preventive and therapeutic features of agonology will only accelerate this process.
