Conceptualizing the Urban System as a System of Flows

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

With increasing part of humanity living in cities and with the complexification of urban issues, there is a growing need of the theory of the urban. My question is, how to put the various strands of research on urban matters together. I suppose that a theory of complex self-referential systems is well equipped for this task. Therefore, I respecified Luhmann's concepts in the urban realm. As a result, I suggest a theory of self-referential systems of flows. Such systems reduce the complexity that is resulting from spatial dispersal of people and social systems. What emerges as constraints of systems of flows are channels, accumulations and centers, that, when solidified, may become cities.
