First Concept: Theory (2500 a.c)
In the field of Culture
Chinase gave certain principles that involved notions related to
the subject that occupies us. as is the case of the principle that "the whole is greater than each of the parts that compose it"; as is logical this principle leads to the study of each of those parts that constitute the whole. -

First Term: Systems (700 a.c)
In the Greek world, pre-Socratic philosophy. will also postulate theories related to the question, however we must wait for the time
of Plato and Aristotle to discover how these ideas acquire letter of
nature, the term system appearing for the first time. -
The scientific theory of the human being (Pierre Vendryes)
This French biologist examines the biological conditions of the autonomy of human beings. Within the corresponding limits, it considers the issues of motor autonomy and mental autonomy. -
Universal Theory of Organization. Alexander Bogdanov
He developed the Universal Theory of Organization. First documented reference regarding a body of knowledge similar to our TGS. -
Origin of the TGS
The TGS does not seek to solve problems or try practical solutions, but rather to produce theories and conceptual formulations that can create conditions of application in empirical reality. -
Theory of Games
With such a wide field of application, game theory would be the universal panacea if it could always predict how people will play the games in which social life largely consists. -
Cybernetics
Norbert Wiener published the work entitled Cybernetics, on the technique of command systems, in which he developed general notions in relation to the mechanisms capable of governing. -
Theory of Network
A first approach to the notion of TGS
of Rapoport, is the one that seeks the sociological bases of the TGS, that is, the intellectual position
of those who hold such a perspective. In this regard, Rapoport argues that there are certain dimensions, aspects or regions of the world that can
be constituents of a system or a set of
systems, and that these can be studied. -
Society for the Advancement of General Systems Theory
The Society for General Systems Research became the first interdisciplinary and international cooperation in the field of systems theory and systems science. -
Theory of Graphs
The theory of graphs, especially that of directed graphs
(digigraphic), elaborates related structures representing them in a topological space. It has been applied to relational aspects of biology. -
Theory of Scientific Revolution
Scientific revolutions make new things to be seen in a different way where they had already been seen before, and new paradigms make scientists see the world of research that is their own, in a different way. -
Theory of Automata
The theory of automata is a branch of the theory of computation that studies abstract machines and the problems that they are capable of solving. -
Theory of Catastrophes
René Thom and E.C. Zeeman propose the Theory of Catastrophes, which classifies phenomena characterized by sudden shifts in their behavior. Essentially holds that the universe is a mixture of disorder and order. -
Application of Science to Systems Engineering
Systems engineering is an interdisciplinary field of engineering that allows to study and understand reality, with the purpose of implementing or optimizing complex systems. -
Theory of Chaos
David Ruelle, Edward Lorenz, Mitchell Feigenbaum, Steve Smale and James A. Yorke describe Chaos Theory, a mathematical theory that explains that the result of something depends on different variables and that it is impossible to predict from non-linear dynamical systems, strange attractions and chaotic movements. Ilya Prigogine, states that the world does not strictly follow the model of the clock, predictable and determined, but has chaotic aspects. -
Recursive complementarity in cybernetics of education (D. Sawada and M. Caley)
It aims to develop a conception of cybernetics appropriate for educational activity. The recursive complementarity model is used as a form of continuous recurring interaction in the education process. The goal is that learners have the freedom to innovate and the possibility of self-adjustment. -
Contribution of characteristics to the TGS
Schoderbek and other scholars attributed certain characteristics to General Systems Theory, such as:
1. Interrelation and interdependence of objects, attributes, events and other similar aspects.
2. Totality.
3. Search for objectives.
4. Supplies and products.
5. Transformation.
6. Entropy.
7. Regulation.
8. Hierarchy.
9. Differentiation.
10. Equifinality.
