With so many terms available to define the same thing, it would
seem nearly irresponsible to introduce yet another term (complex
situation) to describe a phenomenological state of such as a
system. However, a complex situation infers both a broader meaning
and imposes a different perspective. Complex in this context is
dependent on understanding and reality rather than observer and
knowledge. Situation imposes a gestalt that cannot be characterized
within a singular perspective that relegates paradox to a
superior/subordinate hierarchy. This also infers that complex
situation has no monotonic definition or each definition is by
default incomplete. Therefore the perennial derivations for systems
such as complex systems, system of systems, federation of systems
is no longer a sufficient descriptor for complex situation. Ergo
system and its genealogy lack the constitution to define complex
situations. The books' intent is to explore this pathology through
a series of papers written by authors that work in complex
situations and have dealt with the limitations of the status quo:
systems.
