Contributions of the Functionalist Approach to Sciences

The unicist ontology is a paradigm shift that enables an understanding of the functionality of the real world. It defines the nature of things based on their functionality within the adaptive systems to which they belong. This functionality determines the causality of events in the real world, which is itself an adaptive system.
