Abstract: AbstractNeurocybernetics in management theory is a new concept of learning decision systems based on the episteme of unity of knowledge. Such an episteme must be unique and universal so as to be appealing to the global community. Neo-liberalism, which is the core of present perspectives in management theory, cannot offer such a new epistemic future. That is because of the inherently competitive nature of methodological individualism that grounds received management and decision-making theory. On the contrary, the episteme of unity of knowledge on which a new and universal perspective of management and decision-making theory can be established remains foreign to the liberal paradigm. Neurocybernetic theory of management is thus a theory of learning and unifying types of decision-making systems. It is studied here with reference to the case of community-business unitary relations and the family. The social neurocybernetic implications are examined for these two cases in the light of neo-liberalism and Islam according to their contrasting perspectives of the nature of the world of self and other. Out of these specific studies, the chapter derives a generalized theory of neurocybernetic of social management encompassing the wider field of endogenous morality, ethics, and values within the unified process-oriented methodology of a new episteme of science and society.
