Report copyright infringementby Francisco Parra-Luna (Editor), Eva Kasparova (Editor)According to many social thinkers it is not possible to quantify the performance of organizations on the basis of the values produced. One initial reply to this critique is that the axiological approach in systems theory aims to fulfil a dual function. On one side, it takes a whole set of universal reference values into consideration which in the end spur human motivation and action justifying life in society...

The notion of truth, or that of validity, is based on the existence of a winning strategy o...
