 ON THE CO-EVOLUTIVE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN SOCIETAL ENTITY AND ITS ENVIRONMENTMihai-Cristian Trandafir
Journal of Financial and Monetary Economics, 2020, vol. 8, issue 1, 249-256 Abstract: An autopoietic societal entity is always functioning in a strong relationship with its environment, although some degree of autonomy is required as well. The societal entity develops relationships with its environment based on a ”game” within which the reaction norms of the two „players” are exchanged and mutually validated. Paper examines, from a logical and institutional perspective, the way in which the autopoietic entity evolution becomes, in fact, a co-evolution with its environment. To this end, some concepts are introduced, developed, and analyzed as: reaction norm, norms compatibility (or fatality), tunnel of compatibility (or niches compatibility), fine adjusting of reaction norms (or co-web of co-evolution). Paper is preponderantly placed in the new perspective of the social system as autopoietic system introduced in social theory by sociologist Niklas Luhmann.
