Abstract:
This article revisits the concept of autopoiesis and examines its relation to cognition and life. We present a mathematical model of a 3D tesselation automaton, considered as a minimal example of autopoiesis. This leads us to a thesis T1: “An autopoietic system can be described as a random dynamical system, which is defined only within its organized autopoietic domain.” We propose a modified definition of autopoiesis: “An autopoietic system is a network of processes that produces the components that reproduce the network, and that also regulates the boundary conditions necessary for its ongoing existence as a network.” We also propose a definition of cognition: “A system is cognitive if and only if sensory inputs serve to trigger actions in a specific way, so as to satisfy a viability constraint.” It follows from these definitions that the concepts of autopoiesis and cognition, although deeply related in their connection with the regulation of the boundary conditions of the system, are not immediately identical: a system can be autopoietic without being cognitive, and cognitive without being autopoietic. Finally, we propose a thesis T2: “A system that is both autopoietic and cognitive is a living system.”

Abstract:
Maturana and Varela's notion of autopoiesis has the potential to transform the conceptual foundation of biology as well as the cognitive, behavioral, and brain sciences. In order to fully realize this potential, however, the concept of autopoiesis and its many consequences require significant further theoretical and empirical development. A crucial step in this direction is the formulation and analysis of models of autopoietic systems. This article sketches the beginnings of such a project by examining a glider from Conway's game of life in autopoietic terms. Such analyses can clarify some of the key ideas underlying autopoiesis and draw attention to some of the central open issues. This article also examines the relationship between an autopoietic perspective on cognition and recent work on dynamical approaches to the behavior and cognition of situated, embodied agents.

Abstract:
“Are living beings extended autopoietic systems? An embodied reply,” makes the case for grounding the autopoietic definition of living beings to the discrete bodies of organisms rather than to autopoietic systems that extend beyond the organisms into their environments. They attempt this grounding by amending a clause to the original formulation of autopoiesis that identifies living beings with their bodies, and then they explicitly define “bodies”. This commentary makes the case that bodily grounding can be derived from molecular autopoiesis by taking the molecular domain seriously, and no new amendment is required.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper is prompted by an analysis of accounting and accounting education by Lawrence et al. (2013) in this journal. In that paper, the authors use the theory of autopoiesis to articulate and explore, what they argue is, an inappropriate conservatism in accounting. This aims to develop the insights offered by Lawrence et al., to advance the understanding of autopoiesis and to use the insights from the theory of autopoiesis to try and confront (what we see as) the resistance shown in business and accounting to the possibilities of a more substantive sustainability agenda. Design/methodology/approach The essay takes its departure point as the paper by Lawrence et al. and uses the theory of autopoiesis as a metaphorical lens through which to re-examine accounting, business and educational practice with respect to sustainability. Findings This paper depart somewhat from Lawrence et al.’s arguments and inferences but broadly supports their contentions that accounting and accounting education are autopoietic. Some advances are offered to the theory and some issues for future research are briefly speculated upon. The analysis succeeds in highlighting that the accounting, business and educational systems may well be protecting their “cores” but are doing so by ignoring crucial and life-threatening information. In autopoietic terms, the sub-systems are behaving as closed systems that are causing self-harm and are being psychopathic. It is speculate that accounting educators may be, themselves, acting as autopoietic persons. Research limitations/implications The essay, in identifying some of the empirical weaknesses inherent in the theory of autopoiesis in a social science context, suggests that the persuasiveness or otherwise of the theory will probably lie in the extent to which a reader finds the heuristic plausible and not in any easily testable propositions. The implications, if this limitation is accepted, are, broadly, that accounting and accounting education are acting psychopathically in the face of (arguably) life-threatening data. Practical Implications There are extensive implications for research and policy but only those for education are explored here. Social Implications If the analysis is persuasive, the implication for engagement with the exigencies of sustainability is profound and disturbing. Originality/value The paper has two primary purposes: to challenge and develop debate around Lawrence et al.’s arguments and to use autopoiesis as one explanation for the inertia around sustainability, business and accounting. The paper extends the theory of autopoiesis as articulated in accounting to embrace both the issue of nesting systems and the autopoietic person. The combination of these contributions is combined with Lawrence et al., in offering a substantive challenge to accounting educators: albeit a substantively different one than those authors offered. It is these matters of difference that ultimately challenge the authors’ roles as educators, researchers and accountants.

Abstract:
The effect of shapes on self-movement has been studied with an extended model of autopoiesis. Autopoiesis is known as a theory of self-boundary maintenance. In this study, not only the autopoietic generation of the self-boundary, but also the emergence of self-motility, has been examined. As a result of computer simulations, it has been found that different membrane shapes cause different types of self-movement. A kind of chemotaxis has been observed for some shapes. The mechanism of chemotaxis is discussed by studying the internal chemical processes within the shape boundaries.

Full text
Abstract:
This article shows that the concept of choice is central to Isaiah Berlin’s liberalism. It argues that his valuing of choice is anchored in a particular conception of human nature, one that assumes and presupposes free will. Berlin’s works sketch a metaphysics of choice, and his reluctance to situate himself openly in the debate on free will is unconvincing. By introducing the theory of autopoiesis, this article further suggests that there is a way to take Berlin’s value pluralism seriously, by considering sets of values as autopoietic conscious systems. Drawing on the works of Maturana and Varela in biology and Luhmann in sociology, autopoiesis strengthens value pluralism and acts as a critique of liberalism. By putting objectivity in parenthesis, autopoiesis finally allows for value systems to coexist side by side in a stronger sense than Berlin’s liberalism ever could.

Abstract:
Villalobos and Razeto-Barry suggest that extended enactivist interpretations of the autopoietic theory do not adequately address the bodily dimensions of living beings. In reply, we suggest that the extended enactivist view provides a richer account of living beings than a theory confined to autopoiesis, and therefore should not be supplanted by a modified autopoietic theory.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this paper we examine the concept of vulnerability as it relates to the materiality of systems, the exclusion of human physical corporeality, and social exclusion in Luhmann's theory of social autopoiesis. We ask whether a concept of vulnerability can be included in autopoiesis in order to better conceptualise social exclusion and the excluded, with a view to understanding how, if at all, the dangers posed by this exclusion are mitigated by autopoietic processes. We are emphatically not returning to the human subject over operational systems, but seek instead to develop an understanding of the embodied nature of humans and their vulnerability within an autopoietic framework. We argue that the awareness of the risks to social functional differentiation posed by unmanaged exclusion – disenchantment, disassociation and, most drastically, dedifferentiation – provided by our analysis indicates why hyper-exclusion must be mitigated.

Full text
Abstract:
AbstractThe paper reports on a study into the usefulness of autopoiesis as a metaphor for reflective thinking about organisations contemplating change. Autopoietic systems display qualities of evolutionary invariance, self organisation to perpetuate the system's status quo, self referential activities and attempts to organise aspects of the environment to suit the system's needs. Systemic characteristics include a desire to return to equilibrium and to be resistant to evolutionary change. Autopoiesis can be used as a metaphor for gaining insights and seeing with fresh eyes some of the perhaps hidden, institutionalised concepts that inform contemporary management strategies. The need for a metaphorical image emerges from the difficulty in reflecting on organisational activities while using historically derived language and symbols. The autopoiesis metaphor was integrated into an exploratory research project with human resource managers as respondents. Tentative findings were that this is a useful metaphor for use in organisational diagnosis. Given this, a more comprehensive study would seem to be worthwhile.

Abstract:
Autopoiesis attempts to provide an operational definition of living systems regardless of the actual form a system takes. One of the key claims of autopoiesis is that a concept of teleology is not needed to explain what it is to be living. In this dissertation I contend that the theory of autopoiesis sets up an impoverished conception of teleology against which to argue and that, partly as a result, autopoiesis is not a fully-coherent concept. I show that the theory of autopoiesis in fact requires living things to have an immanent teleology and that there is consequently a significant convergence between a theory of autopoiesis thus amended, Aristotelian physics — especially as it concerns Aristotle’s concept of δύναμις (dunamis) — and Spinoza’s concept of conatus. I then take this convergence and show how it is relevant to an understanding of contemporary environmental ethics. After an exegesis of the concept of autopoiesis I demonstrate that the concept can be expressed in terms of Aristotle’s δύναμις; and that Spinoza’s concept of conatus owes a major debt to Aristotle in general and to the concept of δύναμις; in particular. Having established that autopoiesis and conatus can be expressed in terms of δύναμις, I examine some theories of environmental ethics in which the presence of autopoiesis or conatus, specifically, or immanent teleology, generally, are considered to be morally relevant properties and in which those things possessing these properties are morally-considerable. I then develop my own (Aristotelian) environmental ethic in which moral agents are faced with a moral imperative to take responsibility for all things which possess an immanent teleology.

A tese aborda a questão da auto-educação a partir da perspectiva de Friedrich Nietzsche e outros pensadores, que o tomaram como referência para pensar filosoficamente possibilidades de uma aprendizagem voltada para fazer da vida uma obra de arte. A questão problematizada é como esta aprendizagem pode ocorrer de modo cada vez mais autônomo configurando uma arte de viver direcionada para a poetização da existência. A auto-educação é pensada como parte de uma autopoiesis, um processo de subjetivação mais abrangente quanto aos aspectos da existência em que a aprendizagem é experimentada no sentido proposto por Nietzsche para fazer da vida uma obra de arte, tornando-se poeta da própria existência e tomando o corpo como fio condutor desse processo. A perspectiva de Nietzsche é considerada juntamente com algumas outras que se apropriaram dela para formularem suas próprias concepções, tais como, principalmente: Oswald de Andrade, pela Antropofagia como visão de mundo voltada para a apropriação seletiva da alteridade subjetiva; Martin Heidegger, pela hermenêutica do acontecimento apropriativo na criação poética; Michel Foucault, pela genealogia dos processos de subjetivação, abrangendo desde a antiguidade greco-romana até a contemporaneidade, que o permitiu formular a questão da estética da existência; Gilles Deleuze e Felix Guattari, pela cartografia da autopoiesis como processo de subjetivação singularizante, modulado por paradigmas estéticos apropriados; e Dante Galeffi, pela proposta poemático-pedagógica de uma educação transdisciplinar para o fazer inventivo do ser-sendo, que configura a vita poemática. Essas e outras perspectivas foram usadas para elaborar a proposta de uma educação autopoiética do corpo criador que Nietzsche indicou como o ser próprio, e foi denominado nesta tese de corpoema. A educação autopoiética do corpoema é pensada ao longo da experimentação da autopoiesis em alguns campos da existência, nos quais se constitui a estética da existência corpoética: os campos de experimentação da habitação do espaço de vida, da dinâmica corporal dos impulsos, das relações de poder, das valorações afetivas, das linguagens de expressão e da compreensão dos sentidos do viver. Em cada um desses campos, são consideradas tendências vitais a serem apropriadas e dificuldades a serem superadas para a composição de um estilo singular na arte de viver corpoética, voltada para a poetização do corpo e incorporação da poesia. Assim, quanto à experiência da habitação, as tendências voltadas para o local e o global; quanto à corporeidade, as tendências dos impulsos eróticos e fraternos; quanto às relações de poder, as tendências para a emancipação e para a solidariedade; quanto à afetividade, as tendências para a dignidade ética e para a intensidade passional; quanto à expressividade, as tendências para a linguagem figurada e para o discurso conceitual; quanto à experiência da compreensão, as tendências para o aprofundamento e para a abrangência. A autopoiesis do corpoema é, portanto, apresentada transversalmente numa cartografia genealógica do processo de subjetivação constituído por essas experimentações, guiadas pelas perspectivas consideradas, no sentido de configurar um estilo corpoéticopara essa estética da existência autopoiética.
ABSTRACT The question of self-education is approached from the perspective of Friedrich Nietzsche and other authors, who took him as reference to think philosophically the possibilities of a learning whose objective is to make life a work of art. The problematized question is how this apprenticeship may occur in a more autonomous way configurating an art of living directed to the poeticization of existence. Self-education is thought as part of an autopoiesis, a widely process of subjectification that includes some aspects of existence in which the apprenticeship is experimented according to Nietzsche‟s proposal to make life a work of art, becoming the poet of one‟s own existence and considering the body as a conducting thread of this process. Nietzsche‟s perspective is considered together with some others which appropriated his ideas to formulate their own conceptions, like, mainly: Oswald de Andrade, for his Anthropophagic world vision turned to a selective appropriation of a subjective otherness; Martin Heidegger, for his hermeneutics of the appropriative happening in poetry creation; Michel Foucault, for his genealogy of subjectification processes, including since greco-roman antiquity until contemporaneity, which allowed him to formulate the question of the esthetics of existence; Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, for their cartography of autopoiesis as a singularizing subjectification process, modulated by proper esthetical paradigms; and Dante Galeffi, for his poematic-pedagogical proposal of a transdisciplinary education for an inventive producing of being, which configurates the poematic vita. These and other perspectives were used to elaborate the proposal of an autopoietic education of the creator body that Nietzsche considered as the self, and is named in this thesis as corpoema. The autopoietic education of corpoemais thought along the experimentation of autopoiesisin some spheres of existence, in which the esthetics of existence of corpoemais constituted. They are the spheres of experimentation of: vital space occupation, body‟s dynamic of impulses, power relations, affective evaluations, languages of expression, and comprehension of living meanings. In each of these spheres, vital tendencies to be appropriated and difficulties to be overcomed are considered to compose a singular style of corpoema‟s art of living, turning to poeticization of the body and embodiment of poetry. Therefore, concerning the habitation experience, the tendencies for local and global; concerning the body experience, the tendencies for erotic and fraternal impulses; concerning the power relations, the tendencies for emancipation and solidarity; concerning affectivity, the tendencies for ethical dignity and for passional intensity; concerning expressivity, the tendencies for figurative languages and for conceptual discourse; concerning comprehension, the tendencies for deepening and for expanding. Corpoema‟s autopoiesis isthus presented transversally in a genealogical cartography of the subjectification process constituted by these experimentations, guided by the considered perspectives, in the way of seting the corpoema‟s style for this autopoietic esthetics of existence.

Abstract:
Det senmoderna samhällets komplexitet och höggradiga differentiering har gjort risker alltmer svåranalyserade, vilket har lett till att sociala system måste ha en förändringsförmåga för att överleva. Det normala riskanalysarbetet i sociala system (exempelvis företag och organisationer) görs på den nivå eller i de interna sektorer där riskerna slår igenom. Uppsatsen ger exempel på befintliga riskhanteringsmodeller för detta och presenterar författarens egen, mer övergripande modell, konstruerad utifrån de tre systemteoretiska begreppen AGIL, autopoiesis och feedback loops. Modellen illustrerar en dialog mellan systemets definitioner, behov och omvärld samt andra system. Uppsatssyftet är att belysa sociala systems förändringsförmåga och beredskap för riskhantering samt hur de genom att använda modellen kan förbättra dessa. Uppsatsen är en litteraturstudie av sociologisk systemteori (funktionalism) och den framlagda modellen är på grund av abstraktionsnivån behäftad med problem rörande den praktiska tillämpningen.

Este estudo tem por objetivo problematizar o conceito de autonomia na micropolítica dos encontros vivos dos dispositivos de saúde mental do SUS. A aposta é dar visibilidade e dizibildade a fabricação de saúde que afirmem as redes de conexões existenciais singulares dos usuários na rede de atenção psicossocial, utilizando a noção de autonomia como analisador. Essa problematização retoma a importância do caráter criativo do movimento da luta antimanicomial nos fazeres e saberes da organização do trabalho em saúde mental que busquem afirmar o usuário como interlocutor valido na produção de sua vida. O conceito de autonomia utilizado nesse trabalho é fruto da intersecção entre os estudos de Maturana e Varela que consideram que a produção da vida biológica ocorre de maneira autônoma, autorreferente e autopoiética e Espinosa, filósofo que discorreu sobre a ética cujo movimento da vida acontece por meio do afetar e ser afetado, possibilitando a singularização dos modos de ser. Além desse três intelectuais, o presente trabalho assenta-se nas produções de Deleuze, Guattari e Rolnik, no que tange, sobretudo, os subsídios da vivência cartográfica da pesquisa. A realização desse trabalho é fruto da articulação entre a teoria e a pesquisa de campo realizada junto aos dispositivos de saúde mental
This study has the objective of problematize the concept of autonomy on the micropolitics of the living encounters of mental health devices on SUS (Unified Health System). The aim is to give visibility and readability for the health manufacturing that affirms the singularity of existential networks among the users of the psychosocial attention network, employing the concept of autonomy as analytic criteria. This way of addressing the problem restores the importance of the creative characteristic of the antimanicomial movement on the practices and knowledges of mental health work organization that seeks to affirm the user as a valid agent in his life management. The concept of autonomy employed in this research comes from the intersection of the works of Maturana and Varela which considers that the biological life occurs on an autonomic manner, self-referential and autopoietic and Espinosa, philosopher that pondered about the ethic in which life movement happens by the affect and be affected, allowing the singularization of the ways of being. Further than those intellectuals, this paper anchors its assumptions on the works of Deleuze, Guatarri and Rolnik, especially which refers to the subsides of the cartographic research experience. This work comes as a result of the mixing of theory and field research promoted inside the mental health devices

Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to give knowledge management a sound conceptual foundation; this was done in three stages. First, the current domain of autopoiesis and knowledge management was explored with a particular focus on reasons for the research and the different approaches used. There was general agreement that knowledge management does need a theoretical foundation and that, currently, knowledge management uses only certain aspects of autopoiesis along with very little empirical work. The second phase of this research was to take an existing model, a model of organisational learning, from the literature and apply to it the principles from autopoiesis. This was done using a matching methodology: a two step process used to align the theories from two or more domains with the aim of creating a new lexis. The resulting autopoietic model of organisational learning was tested in two organisations: Prosidion and the Conservation Services Group. The third phase of this research was to create a model of knowledge that was true to an autopoietic epistemology for evaluation by a range of knowledge management experts from both academia and industry. The main finding from this research was that autopoiesis has the potential to become the theoretical foundation for knowledge management, but further research is required to enhance the usability of the foundation. Principles from autopoiesis can be applied to existing models, with some measurable benefit, but that the true contribution from autopoiesis will be the development of the autopoietic model of knowledge into a tangible, more useable product. This research makes several unique contributions to the field of knowledge management and autopoiesis. First, the creation of the autopoietic models of organisational learning and knowledge, and second, the development of test/evaluation instruments. Finally, the actual results and their analysis provide a new insight into the challenges of giving knowledge management a theoretical foundation.

Just as in nature what is here characterized as quantum critic represents the infinite or instantaneous speed between phase changes, the foundation of science lies in the quantum critic of the transition from scholastic thought free from algebra to modern, fully mastered thinking through mathematical symbology. In medieval scholasticism we see a point of transmutation within a process of seeking the unification of geometry and arithmetic, or more commonly, of philosophy and science. Now we are about to hit another quantum critic, by the exponential development of technology, which is often enthusiastically referred to as a "singularity" when we need to look at the risks of programming machines to replace with immeasurable advantage its programmers, becoming autopoietic, as life, and hence perhaps compete with us, as it happens in nature. It is when the results of "technical transmutation" proliferate, giving rise to the emergence of autopoietic social systems, as described by the German sociologist Niklas Luhmann, from the notion proposed in biology of knowledge by authors such as Chilean Humberto R. Maturana, which are imposed on humans, even if it is for them a condition of possibility of their existence, for by a recursive mechanism, autologically explicable (Heinz von Foerster), positions are reversed, systems becoming a condition of social existence for us humans since we know of no other way of existing than socially. The present difficulty of communication, bordering impossibility, since it grows inexorably and exponentially in the society developed from it, like the entropy in any physical system, has been causing ever greater problems to the life that depends on it, that of us humans. Such a crisis of the systems of meaning, in order to be overcome, requires that the generalized disagreement now in force be recognized, to be reversed by a reprisal of words worn by the unceasingly contested use, so that new or renewed words may arise which is needed, to regain faith in the very possibility of communication. And this is a faith in our ability to communicate, despite the electronic prosthesis that proliferates, giving the false impression of coming to our aid, and in fact helps, but with that reinforce our fundamental disbelief in that capacity, in ourselves, since there is no god left to secure it. Stills there is the hope that inspires us such authors as Vilém Flusser, in a convergence between the arts, sciences and techniques, that could allow us to once again go beyond the limits of an improbability to remain as species, due to a "passage through the poetic" (Heidegger)
Da mesma forma que na natureza o que vem aqui caracterizado como quantum critic representa o infinitésimo ou velocidade instantânea entre as mudanças de fase, a fundamentação da ciência se encontra no quantum critic da transição do pensamento escolástico livre da álgebra para o pensamento moderno, totalmente dominado pela simbologia matemática. Na escolástica medieval verificamos um ponto de transmutação dentro de um processo de busca da unificação da geometria e da aritmética, ou mais vulgarmente, da filosofia e da ciência. Agora, estaríamos prestes a atingir um outro, pelo desenvolvimento exponencial da tecnologia, ao qual se vem referindo, em geral de maneira entusiasta, como uma “singularidade”, quando precisamos atentar para os riscos de estarmos programando máquinas para substituírem com incomensurável vantagem seus programadores, tornando-se autopoiéticas, como a vida, e daí quem sabe entrem em competição conosco, tal como soe acontecer na natureza. É quando proliferam os resultados da “transmutação técnica”, dando ensejo ao aparecimento de sistemas sociais autopoiéticos, tal como descritos pelo sociólogo alemão Niklas Luhmann, a partir da noção proposta em biologia do conhecimento por autores como o chileno Humberto R. Maturana, que se impõem aos humanos, mesmo sendo para eles uma condição de possibilidade de sua existência, mas que deles prescindem, pois por um mecanismo recursivo, explicável autologicamente (Heinz von Foerster) invertem-se as posições, tornando-se os sistemas também condição de existência, social, de nós humanos: não conhecemos outro modo de existir que não socialmente. A dificuldade de comunicação, beirando a impossibilidade, visto que cresce inexorável e exponencialmente na sociedade desenvolvida a partir dela, e como a entropia em qualquer sistema físico, vem causando problemas cada vez maiores à vida que dela depende, a de nós, humanos. Tal crise dos regimes de sentido, a fim de ser superada, requer que se reconheça o desentendimento generalizado ora vigente, a ser revertido por uma repristinação de palavras desgastadas pelo uso incessantemente contestado, para que possam surgir as palavras novas, ou renovadas, de que tanto se necessita, para recuperar a fé na possibilidade mesma da comunicação. E esta é uma fé na nossa capacidade de nos comunicarmos, apesar das próteses eletrônicas que proliferam, dando a falsa impressão de virem em nosso auxílio, e de fato auxiliam, mas com isso reforçam nossa descrença fundamental naquela capacidade, em nós mesmos, desde que não há mais nenhum deus para afiançá-la. Resta a esperança, que nos incute autores como Vilém Flusser, em uma convergência entre as artes, ciências e técnicas, que nos permita ainda uma vez saltar além do limite da improbabilidade de permanecermos enquanto espécie, graças a uma “passagem pelo poético” (Heidegger)
