In this paper, we draw on Francis Heylighen, Marta Lenartowicz, and Niklas Luhmann to show that future research in this global brain will have to reclaim classical theories of social differentiation in general and theories of functional differentiation in particular to develop higher resolution images of this brain&#8217;s function and sub-functions. This claim is corroborated by a brain wave measurement of a considerable section of the global brain. We used the <em>Google Ngram Viewer<\/em>, an online graphing tool which charts annual counts of words or sentences as found in the largest available corpus of digitalized books, to analyse word frequency time-series plots of key concepts of social differentiation in the English as well as in the Spanish, French, German, Russian, and Italian sub-corpora between 1800 and 2000. The results of this <em>socioencephalography<\/em> suggest that the global brain&#8217;s memory recalls distinct and not yet fully conscious biases to particular sub-functions, which are furthermore <em>not<\/em> in line with popular trend statements and self-descriptions of modern societies. We speculate that an increasingly intelligent global brain will start to critically reflect upon these biases and learn how to anticipate or even design its own desired futures.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Steffen Roth<\/u><\/strong> is Associate Professor of Strategic Management at La Rochelle Business School and Professor of Sociology at Yerevan State University. Sociologist by training, he holds a PhD in economics and management from Chemnitz University of Technology (2010) and a PhD in sociology from University of Geneva (2013).<\/p>\n<p>He has been Assistant Professor of Management and Organisation at Rennes School of Business (2012-2016) as well as Visiting Professor of Management and Organisation at International University of Rabat (2012-2017).<\/p>\n<p>His primary research focus is on social differentiation in general and functional differentiation in particular. He is therefore constantly navigating social borders and busy showing that the difference between politics, economy, art, science, religion, and further function systems makes <em>the<\/em> big difference in modern societies.<\/p>\n<p>In his articles, he and his co-authors from academia, United Nations, or KPMG demonstrate how the strategic management of functional differentiation a) leads to the discovery of new business models, b) facilitates the re-design of popular strategic management tools, c) cancels popular value discourses, or d) allows for fresh and alternative descriptions of modern society.
