About this book series

Contemporary Systems Thinking is a series of texts dealing with different aspects of the concept of a system classically introduced by the General Systems Theory.  The series focuses on approaches, concepts, and issues of systems science and systems thinking (systemics) that can be generalizable in an interdisciplinary way, in short, when approaches, models, problems and solutions in one discipline are usable in another.

Contemporaneity relates to consider issues of complexity such as connectionism, chaos and emergence in:

  1. Disciplinary systemics. Disciplinary systemic issues, e.g., long-range correlations and coherence, are elaborated in disciplines, e.g., biology, physics, and then interdisciplinary generalized. 
  2. Theoretical systemics. Systemic issues, self-organization and emergence, are studied in abstract (through mathematical models), and then contextually interdisciplinary applied.
  3. Applicative, corporate systemics. It relates to issues such as architecture inducing behaviors; artificial intelligence; corporate management; economic and social development; energy and pollution in social systems; electronics and computer industry; innovation; medical diagnostics; pharmacology; and security management.  
  4. Cultural systemics. It relates, for instance, to issues of archeology, conflict resolution, criminology, history, international relations, languages, literature, music, philosophy, religions, sociology, and theater.   
  5. Contemporary social issues having predominant systemic aspects such as the climate, ecosystems, energy, human rights, natural environment, pandemic management, pollution, and sustainability.
