RODRIGUEZ ZOYA, Leonardo G.. Contribution to the critique of the theory of complex systems: basis for a research program. Estud. sociol [online]. 2018, vol.36, n.106, pp.73-98. ISSN 2448-6442.  https://doi.org/10.24201/es.2018v36n106.1530.

The aim of this paper is to elaborate a systematic critique of the theory of complex systems (TSC) developed by Rolando Garcia. The strategic goal of this task is to contribute to the development of the TSC as an interdisciplinary research program on complex systems from a social and political perspective. The paper sketches out nine criticisms to TSC. For each criticism we offer a conceptual problematization of an aspect of the TSC and we suggest a hypothetical way for its treatment.

Palabras llave : complex systems; interdisciplinary research; epistemology; methodology; politics.
