Abstract

This chapter uses the concept of Inquiry Systems (ISs) to reveal deeper aspects of SAST. SAST is fundamentally based on Dialectical Inquiry. That is, in order to ensure that one is not committing Errors of the Third Kind (“solving the ‘wrong problems’ precisely”), one must produce at least two very different versions of all-important problems.
