Norbert Wiener
Setting the stage for the buddying systems movement, in his seminal 1948 Cybernetics, Wiener observed that our communication or societal "feedback" is broken. And that we must restructure it, and other systems, by (as we may say this today) innovating systemically (applying systemic insights – how the structure of a system might drive its behavior).
Erich Jantsch Having given the opening keynote at the inaugural meeting of The Club of Rome, in 1968, where it was understood that "the world problematique" must be understood and treated systemically, Erich Jantsch organized some of the leading systems scientists to draft an action plan – which he then developed further and submitted to the MIT for implementation.
Ronald Reagan In 1980 Jantsch passed away, aged 51, without having achieved his goals, or even being accepted on a permanent post at the UC Berkeley where he was sporadically working. In that same year Ronald Reagan became the 40th U.S. President on the agenda "we can only trust the market"...
Conclusions
Wiener's paradox – we do not communicate! See also Gates, Ajkic, etc.
