Principles
De principes vormen het bindmiddel tussen de Sociale Theorie en de Foundation. Vanuit de ST wordt gerefereerd naar de principes om concepten en ideeën nader te verklaren. Een principe wordt beargumenteerd in de Foundation en toegelicht met een voorbeeld van 250 – 1000 woorden. De principes moeten nog verder worden aangescherpt tot een statement dat op zichzelf te begrijpen is. Het principe mag wel een beetje cryptisch zijn zodat de lezer daarover gaat nadenken (bijvoorbeeld: Principle: we have to become what we are not, and yet remain the same.). Als het principe dan in context en theorie wordt geplaatst komt hopelijk het inzicht.
De practices zijn uitgebreide verhalen, op te vatten als een experience of een case study, 1000 – 2500 woorden.
Ground rule: We got to move.
We have no other option but to move.

Aspects and statements overview
Aspect: Reflexive Domain
Principle: WGTM, Principle page:
| Description | Summary |
|---|---|
| We need each other. | We act and react autonomously. |
| Statement page | Statement |
|---|---|
| Exploring Change | The constant factor in life is movement. |
| Self-Reference in a Three-Valued System | Embrace the paradox, i.e., a difference in what was previously stated and therefore contradicting what was said before. Differences keep setting things in motion. Without differences we cease to exist. Therefore, change is inevitable, in fact, it is a necessity for living. |
| The Autopoietic Turn | Humans and social systems operate autonomously and my react when irritated. |
Aspect: Tradition
Principle: WGTM, Principle page:
| Description | Summary |
|---|---|
| We cannot escape tradition. | Tradition is overarching. |
| Statement page | Statement |
|---|---|
| Exploring Change | A system has to become what it is not, and yet remain the same. |
| Some-thing from No-thing | The relationship between things, including humans, is what matters. Something or someone cannot stand or be taken on its own. |
Aspect: Worldview
Principle: MU, Principle page:
| Description | Summary |
|---|---|
| The way one views the world. | The framework of ideas and beliefs forming a global description through which an individual, group or culture watches and interprets the world and interacts with it. |
| Statement page | Statement |
|---|---|
| Model Building - Human Activity Systems | A worldview (Weltanschauung) captures the beliefs, desires and intentions of a person. |
| Model Building - Human Activity Systems | The PQR formula (what, how, why) is pivotal for capturing worldviews. |
| Soft Systems Thinking – Soft Systems Methodology | People differ in worldviews, but nevertheless they typically adhere to aspects of multiple worldviews, which provides room for accommodation. |
Aspect: Systems Thinking
Principle: MU, Principle page:
| Description | Summary |
|---|---|
| Systems thinking is the ability to understand and intervene in complex systems. | Systems thining is an interdisciplinary field, incorporating ideas from philosophy, mathematics, physics, sociology, biology, and many more, to develop an overarching theory to understand complex phenomena from different perspectives. It is about understanding the whole through its parts. However, the parts cannot be understood without the context of the whole. |
| Statement page | Statement |
|---|---|
| Hard Systems Thinking – System Dynamics | A system comprised of a number of interacting feedback loops is a complex system whose behavior can surprise us. |
| Systems Thinking | A system as a whole is comprised of parts. Systems thinking is about understanding the interactions between the parts. |
Statement: Statement 1.
Aspect: Reflexive Domain, Principle: We got to move, Principle page: Principles and Ground Rules
| Statement page | Statement |
|---|---|
| Exploring Change | The constant factor in life is movement. |
| Self-Reference in a Three-Valued System | Embrace the paradox, i.e., a difference in what was previously stated and therefore contradicting what was said before. Differences keep setting things in motion. Without differences we cease to exist. Therefore, change is inevitable, in fact, it is a necessity for living. |
| The Autopoietic Turn | Humans and social systems operate autonomously and my react when irritated. |
