New Cybernetics

New Cybernetics is an interdisciplinary approach focused on understanding and designing complex systems—such as organizations, technology, and living organisms—by considering how they process information, adapt, and maintain stability. It emphasizes feedback loops, self-regulation, and interactions within systems to foster resilience and innovation. Unlike traditional cybernetics, which primarily studied mechanical systems, New Cybernetics integrates insights from fields like biology, cognitive science, and social sciences to address the dynamic and interconnected nature of modern systems, aiming to improve their functionality and adaptability in rapidly changing environments.
