Sumario: | This book explores Niklas Luhmann's theory of social systems, a significant contribution to sociological theory in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Luhmann's work, extending from the late 1960s to the 1990s, seeks to reformulate sociological understanding by integrating modern theoretical tools from fields such as mathematical logic, biology, and cybernetics. The author emphasizes the importance of moving beyond classical sociological debates to incorporate insights from other scientific disciplines, thereby enhancing the explanatory power of sociology. Luhmann's innovative use of systems theory aims to provide a new framework for analyzing social phenomena, challenging traditional assumptions and promoting interdisciplinary dialogue. The book targets scholars and students interested in advanced sociological theories and methodologies.
