Organizational Closure

Circular topology of production processes whereby the product of a system's operation is its own organization.

Frameworks (1)

framework
  • Autopoiesis
    implements
    Maturana-Varela principle of self-maintaining systems that organize themselves through internal feedback; extended here to biological, technological, and hybrid systems.

Concepts (2)

concept
  • Von Foerster's term for the invariant pattern generated by a recursive process; used to define identity of a self.
  • Every autonomous system is organizationally closed, with eigenbehaviour constituting invariant identity.
