This book contains the Proceedings of the 2007 Conference of the
Italian Systems Society. Papers deal with the interdisciplinary
study of processes of emergence, considering theoretical aspects
and applications from physics, cognitive science, biology,
artificial intelligence, economics, architecture, philosophy, music
and social systems. Such an interdisciplinary study implies the
need to model and distinguish, in different disciplinary contexts,
the establishment of structures, systems and systemic properties.
Systems, as modeled by the observer, not only possess properties,
but are also able to make emergent new properties. While current
disciplinary models of emergence are based on theories of phase
transitions, bifurcations, dissipative structures, multiple systems
and organization, the present volume focuses on both generalizing
those disciplinary models and identifying correspondences and new
more general approaches. The general conceptual framework of the
book relates to the attempt to build a general theory of emergence
as a general theory of change, corresponding to Von Bertalanffy's
project for a general system theory.
