Newtonism is based so much on the scientific, political, religious and philosophical views of Sir Isaac Newton. The main reason Newton is known is for the formulation of the theory of gravity along with the law of universal gravitation, in which all particles and bodies attract each other in a reciprocal way, with the same intensity, which would soon explain the movement of the solar system, with the sun attracting the planets and the earth attracting the moon and the bodies around it, even if the moon also attracts the earth, only in the opposite direction.

Scientocracy is the belief in a government based on science. This does not entail that scientists will run the country directly, but rather that political leaders will be informed by scientists. Scientocrats believe this will end the constant arguing over decisions that politicians so often have and will speed up progress and decision-making since all politicians would then be informed about what, based on scientific, analytical knowledge, would be the best steps to take.

The main reason Newton is known is for the formulation of the theory of gravity along with the law of universal gravitation, in which all particles and bodies attract each other in a reciprocal way, with the same intensity, which would soon explain the movement of the solar system, with the sun attracting the planets and the earth attracting the moon and the bodies around it, even if the moon also attracts the earth, only in the opposite direction. Stating that "the forces which hold the planets in their orbs must (be) reciprocally as the squares of their distances from the centers around which they revolve". Color theory was responsible, with a prism that separates the white color into colors of the visible spectrum. He also created the 3 laws of motion, which are:

  1. A body remains at rest, or in motion with constant velocity in a straight line, unless acted upon by a force.
  2. When a body is acted upon by a force, the time rate of change of its momentum is equal to the force.
  3. If two bodies exert forces on each other, these forces have the same intensity, but opposite directions.

The other views would be his participation in the Enlightenment movement, classical liberalism and the view of the Whig party (free trade), Aristotelian philosophical thoughts, strong Christian influence and opposition to atheism.

History

Florence Caddy wrote a book titled Through the fields with Linnaeus: a chapter in Swedish history. Published two volumes in 1887. In these two sentences, she uses "society of the scientocracy" and "scientocrats" to refer to groups of eminent scientists of that time.
