Draft:Egoism of generosity

• Comment: Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG) but presently it is not clear that it does.
  As you may know, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see the articles ‘Your First Article’, ‘Referencing for Beginners’ and ‘Easier Referencing for Beginners’.
  Please note that many of the references are not from sources that are considered reliable for establishing notability.
  Also, if you have any connection to the subject, including being paid, you have a conflict of interest that you must declare on your Talk page (to see instructions on how to do this please click the link). It appears from your account name that you are Sergei Patsiashvili.
  Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements, then please make the necessary amendments before resubmitting the page. It would help our volunteer reviewers by identifying, on the draft's talk page, the WP:THREE best sources that establish notability of the subject.
  It would also be helpful if you could please identify with specificity, exactly which criteria you believe the page meets (eg "I think the page now meets WP:GNG criteria #3, because XXXXX").
  Once you have implemented these suggestions, you may also wish to leave a note for me on my talk page and I would be happy to reassess. Cabrils (talk) 05:03, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

The concept of the Russian-Georgian sociologist Sergei Patsiashvili, outlined in detail in his book “Egoism of Generosity. A Study of the Unconscious in Economics.” [1] In some articles, Patsiashvili is proposed as a solution to the scientific paradox of generosity [2]. During the experiment, the test subjects experienced feelings of happiness from giving a gift; the tomograph recorded the activation of happiness neurons in their brains [3]. Patsiashvili offers his own interpretation of this experiment when he argues that the results can be interpreted as both generosity and wastefulness. In the first case, the result will be unconscious morality, in the second case, unconscious depravity inherent in human nature by default. To solve this paradox, Patsiashvili turns to the late writings of Sigmund Freud, who argued about some unconscious attraction to death. But Freud does not give a complete answer to the question [4]; Patsiashvili is looking for a complete answer and, as he believes, finds it in the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche. Unlike Freud, Nietzsche not only asserts the presence of a certain attraction to self-waste in humans, but also proves that for some rare types of people such an attraction can bring pleasure for a long time. Actually, Nietzsche calls such types of people the highest types of people [5]. Patsiashvili thereby comes to a kind of reception of Nietzsche. Egoism of generosity is an egoistic desire for pleasure, but for the pleasure of wasting oneself, which can benefit others. Patsiashvili also tries to explain why a significant part of people do not experience pleasure from wasting themselves, although they were initially capable of this. A certain trama from excessive waste of oneself can block the egoism of generosity. Then the individual will still experience self-destructive drives (such is his nature), but will not experience pleasure from this, will suffer and suffer, seek a moral and ideological explanation for his behavior, and even experience painful dreams as a result of post-traumatic stress. In fact, Patsiashvlili reduces the entire phenomenon of Fred's superego to such trauma from excessive waste and argues that aesthetics and culture are initially means designed to protect against such excessive waste and from post-traumatic stress.
