“…Valentinov () extracted two key principles from Luhmann';; theory: complexity reduction and critical dependence. In a systems‐theoretic context, complexity is related to opportunities of action and expertise (Schneider, ). Therefore, social systems imply reducing the complexity of their environment because only a selection of the opportunities available to them materializes.…”

“…There are four perspectives of a systemic thought which the authors believe to be pertinent for conjoining and integrating indigenous wisdom and academic achievements into a communal base of knowledge for sustainable development. In addition, the processes of generating this knowledge base start from two ends: One is the interaction of an operationally closed system, which is the rural community, with the changing environment that originates through the new college (Schneider, 2009). The other end is the outreach from the college which can be thematized through a Luhmannian interpretation.…”

“…According to Luhmann, the basic rationale for the existence of social systems is the reduction of complexity, which is understood as the infinite horizon of possibilities of action and experience (cf. Schneider, , p. 251). This horizon is immensely complex.…”

“…Instead, autopoietic systems interact with the environment by processing self‐reference and other‐reference in their internal operations, which must be continually renewed at a sufficiently high rate to keep these systems in existence (cf. Schneider, , p. 275).…”
