Philosophical criticism of RfPs by #CWestChurchman (one of the luminaries of #SystemsThinking).

> All planning begins with a problem; however, it should not be confined to the problem statement. Also, the beginning should not be a clear problem formulation, but rather should be an utterance of moral outrage. John Dewey once said that problems arise from felt needs; however, that is much too mild a statement. One very sad aspect of a great deal of planning research is that the roots of the Request-for-Proposals are cut off at the very start; no wonder the plant withers and dies as proposals, interim, and final reports are written.

The I Ching (Yi Jing) based in Chinese philosophy might be a more systemic approach, in contrast to the more systematic approach based in Western rationalism, says #CWestChurchman via #DeboraHammond.

July 10: Sciencing and Philosophizing on Threads in #SystemsThinking

Extending a presentation from the 67th Annual Meeting of the #InternationalSocietyForTheSystemsSciences, #GarySMetcalf and @daviding are jointly exploring how #systemschange may be approached differently via the philosophical history of American #pragmatism, and post-colonial (contextural-dyadic) thinking.
