Sociocybernetics is an independent chapter of science in sociology based upon the general systems theory and cybernetics.

Sociocybernetics is an independent chapter of science in sociology based upon the general systems theory and cybernetics.

社会控制论是建立在一般系统论和控制论基础之上的社会学科学的一个独立分支。



It also has a basis in organizational development (OD) consultancy practice and in theories of communication, theories of psychotherapies and computer sciences. The International Sociological Association has a specialist research committee in the area – RC51 – which publishes the (electronic) Journal of Sociocybernetics.

它也在组织发展(OD)咨询实践和传播理论,心理治疗理论和计算机科学的基础。美国国际社会学协会协会在该领域有一个专家研究委员会-RC51-该委员会出版《社会控制论电子期刊》。



The term "socio" in the name of sociocybernetics refers to any social system (as defined, among others, by Talcott Parsons and Niklas Luhmann).

“社会”这个术语在社会控制论的名义下指的是任何社会系统(如 Talcott Parsons 和 Niklas Luhmann 等人所定义的)。



The idea to study society as a system can be traced back to the origin of sociology when the emergent idea of functional differentiation has been applied for the first time to society by Auguste Comte.

将社会作为一个系统来研究的思想可以追溯到社会学的起源,当时孔德第一次将功能分化的概念应用于社会。



The basic goal for which sociocybernetics was created, is the production of a theoretical framework as well as information technology tools for responding to the basic challenges individuals, couples, families, groups, companies, organizations, countries, international affairs are facing today.

创建社会控制论的基本目标,是建立一个理论框架和信息技术工具,以应对个人、夫妇、家庭、团体、公司、组织、国家和国际事务今天所面临的基本挑战。

One of the tasks of sociocybernetics is to map, measure, harness, and find ways of intervening in the parallel network of social forces that influence human behavior. Sociocyberneticists' task is to understand the guidance and control mechanisms that govern the operation of society (and the behavior of individuals more generally) in practice and then to devise better ways of harnessing and intervening in them – that is to say to devise more effective ways to operate these mechanisms, or to modify them according to the opinions of the cyberneticist.

社会控制论的任务之一是对影响人类行为的并行社会力量网络进行测绘、测量、控制和干预。社会控制论者的任务是理解在实践中支配社会运作(以及更广泛的个人行为)的指导和控制机制,然后设计更好的方法来控制和干预这些机制——也就是说设计更有效的方法来操作这些机制,或者根据控制论者的意见来修改这些机制。

Sociocybernetics aims to generate a general theoretical framework for understanding cooperative behavior. It claims to give a deep understanding of the general theory of evolution.

社会控制论旨在为理解合作行为提供一个普遍的理论框架。它声称对进化论的一般理论有深刻的理解。

The outlook that sociocybernetics uses when analyzing any living system lies in a basic law of sociocybernetics.

社会控制论在分析任何生命系统时所采用的观点是社会控制论的一个基本规律。

It says: All living systems go through six levels of interrelations (social contracts) of its subsystems:

It says: All living systems go through six levels of interrelations (social contracts) of its subsystems:

它说: 所有的生命系统都要经过子系统的六个层次的相互关系(社会契约) :




  • B. Bureaucracy: follow the norms and rules


  • C. Competition: my gain is your loss


  • D. Decision: disclosing individual feelings, intentions


  • E. Empathy: cooperation in one unified interest


  • F. Free will: The ability for any species, regardless of type, race, sex, creed, belief, genetics, make, model, or sentience to govern their own existence and not be controlled. "To be free to choose how to live life without discrimination or interference."




Going through these six phases of relationship theoretically gives the framework for the sociocybernetic study of any evolutionary system. It serves as an "equation for life."

通过这六个阶段的关系,从理论上为任何进化系统的社会进化论研究提供了框架。它可以作为一个“生活方程式”

Sociocybernetics can be defined as "Systems Science in Sociology and Other Social Sciences" – systems science, because sociocybernetics is not limited to theory but includes application, empirical research, methodology, axiology (i.e., ethics and value research), and epistemology. In general use, "systems theory" and "cybernetics" are frequently interchangeable or appear in combination. Hence, they can be considered as synonyms, although the two terms come from different traditions and are not used uniformly in different languages and national traditions. Sociocybernetics includes both what are called first order cybernetics and second order cybernetics. Cybernetics, according to Wiener's original definition, is the science of "control and communication in the animal and the machine". Heinz von Foerster went on to distinguish a first order cybernetics, "the study of observed systems", and a second order cybernetics, "the study of observing systems". Second order cybernetics is explicitly based on a constructivist epistemology and is concerned with issues of self-reference, paying particular attention to the observer-dependence of knowledge, including scientific theories.[1] In the interdisciplinary and holistic spirit of systems science, although sociology is clearly at the centre of interest of sociocybernetics, the other social sciences, such as psychology, anthropology, political science, economics, are addressed as well, with emphases depending on the particular research question to be dealt with.

社会控制论可以被定义为“社会学和其他社会科学中的系统科学”-系统科学,因为社会控制论并不局限于理论,而是包括应用、实证研究、方法论、价值论(即伦理和价值研究)和认识论。一般来说,“系统论”和“控制论”经常是可以互换的,或者以组合的形式出现。因此,它们可以被视为同义词,尽管这两个术语来自不同的传统,在不同的语言和民族传统中使用不一致。社会控制论包括一阶控制论和二阶控制论。根据维纳最初的定义,控制论是“动物和机器中的控制和交流”的科学。海因茨 · 冯 · 福尔斯特继续区分了一阶控制论,“对观察系统的研究” ,和二阶控制论,“对观察系统的研究”。二阶控制论明确地以构成主义认识论为基础,关注自我参照的问题,特别关注知识的观察者依赖性,包括科学理论。在系统科学的跨学科和整体精神中,虽然社会学显然处于社会控制论的兴趣中心,但其他社会科学,如心理学、人类学、政治学、经济学,也被处理,重点取决于要处理的具体研究问题。

Recent research from the Santa Fe Institute presents the idea that social systems like cities don't behave like organisms as has been proposed by some in sociocybernetics.[2]

圣菲研究所最近的研究表明,像城市这样的社会系统并不像社会控制论中提出的有机体那样运作。
