Cybernetics of solvability applied to problem‐solving
Abstract
The study aims at defining solvability at the cross‐roads of cybernetics and problem‐solving. The cases of solvability being focussed on are generated by intervention, and as a result, their approach encounters circular and undisciplinary solving problems. This is why definitions of the third‐order circularity and the undisciplinary framework are analytical and restrictive. The second part of the study is particularly concerned with the construction of an arguably cybernetic model of the solving process, and the formal requirements endorsing the research programme. Finally, far‐aiming conclusions are drawn referring to the epistemic consistency of the third‐order cybernetics and problem‐solving, in an attempt to unify these two, already converging, scientific endeavours.
