Qualitative complexity: ecology, cognitive processes and the re-emergence of structures in post-humanist social theory
New York: Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group. Edited by Chris Jenks (2006)
Abstract
Qualitative Complexity offers a critique of the humanist paradigm in contemporary social theory. Drawing from sources in sociology, philosophy, complexity theory, 'fuzzy logic', systems theory, cognitive science and evolutionary biology, the authors present a new series of interdisciplinary perspectives on the sociology of complex, self-organizing structures.Author's Profile
