About Us
Welcome to the International Society for the Systems Sciences
The goal of the ISSS, at its founding (as the Society for General Systems Research), was:
- to encourage the development of theoretical systems which are applicable to more than one of the traditional departments of knowledge
... leading to the principal aims ...
- to investigate the isomorphy of concepts, laws, and models in various fields, and to help in useful transfers from one field to another;
- to encourage the development of adequate theoretical models in areas which lack them;
- to eliminate the duplication of theoretical efforts in different fields; and
- to promote the unity of science through improving the communication among specialists.
The direction is as valuable today, as it was in 1956.
