Diachrony (or diachronic shifts) resurrects a word from 1857, better expressing *changes through time*. A social practice publication in 1998 contrasts synchronic with diachronic. ingbrief.wordpress.com/2024/04

I agree that defining systems boundaries is problematic, @tg9541 . I sometimes prefer the labelling of a systems approach over systems thinking, because an approach has an additional sense of converging, particularly when it's a group thinking together towards collective action.

I learned from a WP article (see alt text) that Norbert #Wiener was involved in the political discussion of mitigating the effects of the technological revolution which industrial and administrative #automation brought about.

The 2019 edition of #Cybernetics is freely available form MIT press (URL in alt text).

It's related to my work regarding the boundaries of a system A that objectivizes a system B that it intents to control, the problem of #grounding, #semantics and #classes. #ai is old.

#JosiahRoyce was one of #NorbertWiener's teachers. To me it appears plausible that the Roycean take on #sociology and the #individual had an impact on Wiener's #cybernetics

Lesson #3: Proportional representation weakens democracy by making it harder to middle common ground within parties and creating opportunities for niche parties to become extremist in a bid to earn profile. Thank God #Canada does not have proportional representation

Lesson #2: the lifestory of the leader does not guarantee commitment to democratic principles. Yes, the VVD leader is a former refugee with a Turkish name, but she shunned immigrants and turned her back on principles of inclusion and pluralism that define 21st century democracy theguardian.com/world/2023/sep

Lesson #1 from the Dutch election: When a centre-right party signals openness to the far-right party, voters choose the far-right party instead. The ruling VVD lost power after signalling their openness to coalition with the notorious racist Geert Wilders. The Dutch have shown that racist voters want racist leaders, not big-tent centrists.
