Further Conceptual Trends in the History of Systems Philosophy From Systems Philosophy to a Philosophy of Schemas

摘要

Systems Philosophy has played a central role in the development of Western philosophy in general and systems of philosophy have abounded and moved on beyond Systems to consider alternative schemas as has Systems Science. The history of Systems Philosophy is complex and interesting and should be taken into account by Systems Scientists. We build on an account already given from the Greeks to Hegel and offer an account that surveys more recent Continental Philosophy and attempts to identify the cutting edge of Advanced Systems Philosophy.
