About the Author

About the Publisher

Adaptation: In Systems Theory, transformation of a system according to new situations. Also, adaptation to a new context in order to survive (for example, of an individual who enters a culture different from his own).

Environment: In general systems theory, A is what surrounds the system, its environment, or surrounding world.

Helps: In systems theory, it is the energy that makes it possible to enter a system of demands, its processing and output in the form of products. There are material (for example, paying taxes) and immaterial (for example, obedience to laws). Other examples: A for political participation (attending a march), respect for authorities and symbols, etc. They are resources that allow a system to extract, regulate and distribute.

Black box: See black box.

Black box (Burrhus Skinner): Model of a thing, seen by the function it fulfills in a system without considering its internal mechanism, which is hidden in a CN.

NC is a concept used by behaviorism (a model by which what happens within psychic life is not taken into account, reducing the individual to a simple machine, where what is important is the observable as shown by the stimulus pair -answer), functionalism and general systems theory.

Demands: In systems theory, the Ds can be for goods and services (salary increase), regulations of conduct (marriage law), participation (right to vote) or communication (right to information). The Ds affect the policies or purposes of the system.

Environment (general systems theory): Environment that surrounds a system.

Inputs: See inputs.

Inputs (systems theory): Input variables in a system. In the field of Political Science, according to D. Easton, the I's refer to the interaction in a political system between roles, structures, subsystems and cultures in a process that starts with certain income, inputs or inputs to the system from the environment or from their own bosom, which go through a conversion of these within the system and then leave it in the form of products (outputs) to the outside. For example, a social claim for the sanction
