Abstract

The world we live in consists of a great variety of coordination systems. A family, a nation or the human race are such entities. The units may differ in size, but all are composed of the same structural elements, i.e., individuals held together by bonds. The individual members can vary in size, status or sex, and ties between them can be weak or strong. The resulting structure determines the functional properties of the coordination complex. Social groups are programmed for change. Number, character and rank of members can alter and bonds will adjust accordingly. As a consequence, new structures and functions emerge.
