摘要: Laws describe; theories explain. This chapter introduces the reader to laws of social complexity. These are formal descriptive relations that exist among components and variables complex systems. The approach in this is divide study complexity into two classes: structural distributional laws. Structural describe how depends on organizational architecture. fundamental patterns architecture serial parallel, which correspond conjunctive disjunctive events performance systems processes. most ultimately based these patterns. By contrast, nonequilibrium dynamics. pattern dynamics power law, assumes various forms different Some intriguing phenomena (language, conflict, wealth, urbanization)
