Toward a Common Language for Systems
IFSR Conversation– April 2012 Sponsored by the International Federation for Systems Research (IFSR) Team 4: Towards a Common Language for Systems Praxis © 2012 IFSR unless otherwise indicated (reprinted with permission) James Martin (USA), [email protected] (Team Leader) Johan Bendz (SE), [email protected] Gerhard Chroust (AUT), [email protected] Duane Hybertson (USA), [email protected] Harold “Bud” Lawson (SE), [email protected] Richard Martin (USA), [email protected] Hillary Sillitto (UK), [email protected] Janet Singer (USA), [email protected] Michael Singer (USA), [email protected] Tatsumasa Takaku (JP), [email protected] Abstract: We explored developing “common language for systems praxis” to help systems theorists and systems practitioners deal with the major cross-discipline, cross-domain problems facing human society in the 21st Century. For the first three days, we explored a broad range of issues, from previous efforts at standardization; to the nature of language, culture, and praxis; to the relationship between systems science, systems thinking, and systems approaches to practice. On day 4, we used Checkland’s CATWOE approach to understand the usage, context, and constraints for any common language for systems praxis. On day 5, this checklist helped us develop a diagram showing how an integrated approach to Systems Praxis could put theories from Systems Science and Systems Thinking into action through technical Systems Engineering and social Systems Intervention. We learned that the best medium for communication across different ‘tribes’ is patterns, and that a common language for systems praxis could use system patterns and praxis patterns to relate core concepts, principles, and paradigms, allowing stakeholder ‘silos’ to more effectively work together. -

Towards a New Foundation for Systems Practice: Grounding Multi-Method Systemic Interventions
UNIVERSITY OF HULL Towards a New Foundation for Systems Practice: Grounding Multi-Method Systemic Interventions being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of PhD in the University of Hull by Manuel Pretel-Wilson (BBus, BA, MA, MS) May 15, 2017 “The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes” Marcel Proust In Memory of Àngel Ros Bosch (1961-2001) For developing my capacity to question And constantly learn about reality I was truly honoured Thank you! Acknowledgements First, I want to thank Gerald Midgley for giving me the opportunity to deliver a seminar at the Centre of Systems Studies in HUBS. I never expected that a random email after having read his great book, Systemic Intervention: Philosophy, Methodology, and Practice (2000), would take me to England, and even less to start a PhD in Systems Science. I’m also grateful because he encouraged me to write a paper that I presented at the ISSS 2014 Conference, in Washington DC, on what I thought at the time was General System Theory (GST) but turned out to be Systems Philosophy, and especially for suggesting me, at a time when I nearly gave up the whole endeavour, a possible route to continue my thesis that turned out to be the right one after all. Indeed, Gerald triggered the crucial turning point that made this PhD worthwhile. Thanks for your precious encouragement; otherwise this thesis would have never seen the light. My thanks go to Angela Espinosa and Joan Walker for having introduced me to the practice of systemic interventions, without which I would never have witnessed the powerful potential of systems methodologies. -

PHILOSOPHICAL CONDITIONS FOR SUSTAINABLE OUTCOMES TO COMPLEX SYSTEMIC INTERVENTIONS David Rousseau PhD 1,2,3,* 1 Centre for Systems Philosophy, Surrey, United Kingdom 2 Centre for Systems Studies, Hull University Business School, Hull, East Yorkshire, UK 3 School of Theology, Religious Studies and Islamic Studies, University of Wales Trinity Saint David, Lampeter, Ceredigion, UK * Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Consideration of Alexander Laszlo’s inspiring vision for a sustainable thriving eco-civilization shows that it is grounded in three important assumptions. These may seem unremarkable at first sight but an analysis of their implications reveals that they commit us to positions that are deeply problematic in the academy. The systems movement will have to help find ways to resolve these issues as a prerequisite for attaining the presented vision. In my view this can be done, and in my presentation I will show what these problems are and how we might approach helping to resolve them. Alexander Laszlo’s three assumptions are that (1) a sustainable thriving eco-civilization is possible, (2) we can bring it about, and (3) it is important that we bring it about. I will show that these three assumptions confront us with three problems the systems movement has struggled with since its inception: (a) the disunity of knowledge and fragmentation of worldviews, (b) the semantic divergence between different disciplines, and (c) the absence of scientific support for non-constructivist theories about values. In situations characterised by complexity and value conflicts these problems subvert collaborative solution design, impede efficient execution of interventions, and undermine broad adoption of the solution features. -

Every year, dozens of people offer up a year or more of their lives to serve at a Brethren Volunteer Service project. Others volunteer in more short-term ways. While many in the world are focused on getting ahead personally, why do some choose to focus instead on serving others? 12 Ministry where the rubber meets the road Wes Richard co-pastors an urban congregation in Ohio, and the unique ministry that occurs there has taught him a variety of lessons along the way. -
