Abstract

There are signs of complexity everywhere in the world. Economic and social systems like simple businesses or even large global economic systems involve the interactions of a multitude of participants. This makes for complexity in all aspects of our lives. By identifying the attractors in the complex systems and disclosing the existence of some hidden order of those systems, this paper explains the complexity theory, claiming it can be used to study non-linear dynamic systems effectively. It will elaborate on the relationship between the theory and social sciences in general and organization theory and strategy in particular.The paper begins reviewing chaos theory briefly and claims that both chaos and complexity theories seek to relate the extrinsic unpredictability of non-linear dynamic systems to their hidden and systemic order. At the same time the paper points out chaos theory is confined to finding mathematical certain functions. It continues by placing stress on networks, as studied by Kuffman, and recursive models, regarding the use of network theory as synonymous with the evolution of complex systems. In the end, the paper points to the application of complex systems for the economic and social systems as well as organization strategy and concludes by persuading the audience to resort to much deeper knowledge when trying to judge the capabilities of complexity theory.
