Origins Of General System Theory (GST)
General System Theory Origins of General System Theory (GST) Many years before the general system theory could be explicitly structured its essence had been de facto envisaged
http://www.bertalanffy.org/c_26.html

Extractions: Many years before the general system theory could be explicitly structured its essence had been de facto envisaged: the naturalist Charles Darwin (1809-1882) had written that he was "inclined to look at everything as resulting from designed laws"; the poet-philosopher-scientist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) "intuitively conceived" general systems theory by postulating "a unity of design within groups and organisms" and thus "a universal law of harmony"; the biologist Ernst Heinrich Haeckel (1834-1919) adopted the Goethean vision of all nature: a unity orchestrated by universal natural laws. Bertalanffy soon started thinking: if law of gravity applies equally to apples and planets, and if the law of probability applies equally to genetics and life insurance, then laws of biological systems such as those governing growth and adaptation of living beings might well be applicable to the human psyche, to social institutions, and to the whole global ecosphere. When he was 36 years old, he had formulated the hypothesis that there are natural laws of organization governing systems on all levels of existence, and advocated an interdisciplinary search for such a kind of laws in the domains of the human psyche, social organizations and the global ecosphere. Bertalanffy also developed his general systems ideas supported by Goethe's view that nature's archetypes are not static ideals but are "never-ending streams of becoming" in accordance with the arguments of the Greek philosopher Heraclitus of Efesus (circa 540-480) "all is flux" because "everything is in flux ... You cannot step into the same river twice, for fresh water is forever flowing towards you". According to Bertalanffy: "Living forms are not in being, they are happening, They are the expression of a perpetual stream of matter and energy which passes through the organism and at the same time constitutes it".

To go directly to the superordinate content file, click here , and to see the author's homepage, click here 1 - Systems Theory Background Control Theory concepts have a distinct history outside the realm of technology, being frequently encountered in social sciences such as politics, economics, and management. Mayr (1971), for example, makes a good case for dating the concepts of feedback and self-regulation in economic theory to David Hume's essay "On the Balance of Trade" (Hume, 1752), and they are also easy to see in the discussion of defective self-regulation in Thomas Malthus' (1798) "Essay on the Principle of Population" . Formal theories did not appear, however, until the early twentieth century. Lotka (1925, cited in Kramer and de Smit, 1977) was the first to speak of "open systems" - systems which interacted with, and responded to, their environment - and he was closely followed by Cannon (1927), who used the concept of homeostasis to explain a whole variety of biological phenomena, and by Von Bertalanffy (1932), who further developed the vocabulary and popularised the title "system theory" [nowadays more frequently seen as "systems theory"].

Perspectives On General System Theory
Perspectives on GENERAL SYSTEM THEORY by Ludwig von Bertalanffy A collection of essays gathered together and published two years after his death in 1972.
http://www.isss.org/laszlofw.htm

Extractions: George Braziller, New York Of particular interest... Forward by Ervin Laszlo ...In the late twenties, von Bertalanffy (himself in his twenties) spoke of the new perspective as a method, and called it "organismic biology." He spoke of it as an attempt at explanation, calling it "The system theory of the organism." Later (1947) he recognized that "there exist mdels, principles and laws that apply to generalized systems or their suclasses irrespective of their particulatr kind, the nature of the component elements, and the relations or "forces' between them. We postulate a new discipline called General System Theory/" The use of this term in English has wroght a certain amount of havoc. mainly through misunderstanding. It was criticized as pseudoscience and said to be nothing more than an admonishment to attend to things in a holistic way. Such criticisms would have lost their point had it been recognized that von Bertalanffy's general system theory is a perspective or paradigm, and that such basic conceptual frameworks play a key role in the development of exact scientific theory. The original concept of general system theory was Allgemeine Systemtheorie (or Lehre). Now "Theorie" (or Lehre) just as Wissenschaft, has a much broader meaning in German than the closest English words "theory" and "science." A Wiss enschaft is any organized body of knowledge, including the Geisteswissenschaften, which would not be considered true sciences in English usage. And Theorie applies to any systematically presented set of concepts, whether they are empirical, axiomatic, or philosophical. (Lehre comes into the same category, but cannot be properly translated; its closest equivalent, "teaching" sounds dogmatic and off the mark.)

Extractions: December 1, 1996; to December 31, 1997 http://www.newciv.org/ISSS_Primer/seminar.html James Grier Miller and Jessie L. Miller Adapted from Analysis of Dynamic Psychological Systems, Volume 2: Methods and Applications, edited by Ralph L. Levine and Hiram E. Fitzgerald. Plenum Press, New York, 1992. Living systems theory identifies basic principles that underlie the structure and processes of living things and relates them to the nonliving physical world, integrating and bringing order to the ever-growing mass of empirical data about them. In addition, living systems models and methodology are useful in empirical research on the great variety of systems of interest to psychology and related fields and in study of individual systems at any of the eight levels of living systems. Research in General Systems Theory Systems science research, whatever its particular theoretical bias, is concerned with processes of heterogeneous, complex systems. The systems of interest may be (a) living, (b) nonliving or (c) mixed living and nonliving. The last class (c) includes both man-machine and ecological systems. These are complex not only because they have many interacting parts but also because they change over time in ways that are not necessarily predictable from their initial states. What Forrester calls

International Journal of Interdisciplinary Research. Focuses on philosophy of language and mind, and social system theory. Annual with varying themes. Tables of contents and some papers available on-line.
http://www.protosociology.de/

Extractions: ProtoSociology is an interdisciplinary journal which crosses the borders of philosophy, social sciences, and their corresponding disciplines. Each issue concentrates on a specific topic taken from the current discussion to which scientists from different fields contribute the results of their research. New Volume 26: ProtoSociology is further a project that examines the nature of mind, language and social systems. In this context theoretical work has been done by investigating such theoretical concepts like interpretation and (social) action, globalization, the global world-system, social evolution, and the sociology of membership. Our purpose is to initiate and enforce basic research on relevant topics from different perspectives and traditions.
