| Video Discription | Niklas Luhmann’s system theory is a sophisticated framework that views society through the lens of autopoietic systems—self-referential entities that are distinct from their environment. Central to this theory is the idea of differentiation, where the world is composed of various systems that are operationally closed but interact through structural couplings. Luhmann posits that social systems are communication-based, meaning that it is the act of communication itself, not the individuals, that forms and sustains these systems. One of the key concepts in Luhmann's theory is the functional differentiation of society into subsystems such as law, politics, economy, and education, each governed by its own binary code (e.g., legal/illegal for the legal system). These systems maintain their coherence by producing and reproducing their operations autonomously. Despite their operational closure, these systems are open to information from their environment, which influences their internal operations without directly interacting with them. Luhmann’s approach significantly departs from traditional sociological theories that focus on individuals and their actions. Instead, it emphasizes abstract processes and the systemic nature of social structures, offering a comprehensive yet complex model for understanding the evolution and functionality of social phenomena.
