Systeemdynamiek en socialisatie/opvoeding: Nieuwe theoretische perspectieven

Samenvatting

In Soziale Systeme, Niklas Luhmann applied the idea of autopoiesis (= self-production) to social systems. Abstracted from its biological connotations, the concept of autopoiesis leads to a sharp distinction between different kinds of autopoietic organization, i. e. between life, consciousness and communication. The relationship of social systems and human beings cannot be adequately analyzed except by taking into account that they are environments for one another. Therefore, the concept and theory of socialization need to be revised. A revision of the concept of socialization is proposed in accordance with Luhmann's theory of social systems.
