This book is a collection of all the single authored essays by Paul
Cilliers, published between 1990-2011. Being one of few authors who
approached the study of complexity from a philosophical
perspective, the main themes in these papers explore: - Qualitative
characterization of complexity and the normative implications of
studying complex adaptive systems, - the philosophical and
conceptual similarity to post-structural approaches - how any
engagement with complexity leads to a critical engagement with how
we do science and design interventions - critical and normative
implications for how to engage with complex socio-political
concerns in the world. What makes this book unique is that it
consolidates a body of work that is distributed over a wide range
of academic journals. Although his book "Complexity and
Postmodernism" (Routledge, 1998) remains a cornerstone in the field
of complexity studies, Cilliers' journal essays really explore the
application of the theoretical concepts in more depth. His
ground-breaking ideas conceptualized in these essays have served as
a continual source of novelty and inspiration in the process of
applying complexity thinking to other fields of study.
