Closed System Theory

Closed System Theory refers to a concept in systems theory where a system does not interact with its environment. In such a system, all necessary inputs and resources are contained within it, and processes occur without external influences. This means that outcomes are determined solely by the internal dynamics and rules of the system itself. In real life, few systems are entirely closed, as most interact with their surroundings. However, understanding closed systems helps in analyzing isolated situations, such as scientific experiments or theoretical models, where external factors are intentionally minimized.
