Complexity

Everybody is, at least, aware that life is somehow complex but living our lifes with freedom, this is making our own decisions, should be the easiest duty. USUE MENDAZA

Complexity is everywhere. Animals, plants, cities, computers, human beings are quite complex. And because it is an inner and controversial feature, some scientists have tried to come into terms with complexity to approach this notion in a simple way and to put order in the world disorder.

First of all to reorder the notions in this seemingly initial misleading issue… in a complex system there has to be some inherent conditions:

• it must evolve in time.
• there must be an interdependence between its members.
• lack of a single equilibrium; the equilibrium position shifts with change.
• it must be ruled by some regularities in their behaviour.

Having mentioned these requirements, we all presumably already understand Complexity. However, what is most important, is to figure out then how to face it.

How to face a pandemya or an epidemic outbreak like ZIKA, even a student misbehaviour? Giving a diagnosis, either to the epidemiology or to the teenage problem is not enough. It is necessary to know and to understand the agents behaviour and how these interact each other.? The life of the virus itself or the disorganized personality pattern of the student are probably not only determined by internal, genetic or inherited factors but also by unnoticed outcoming reasons. The cure of this? hostile outcome, either from cells or violent students, involves going to the root of the problem itself: by attacking the ?bad? cells. We would not expect results at the first chance. On the contrary, our? learning trial and error (heuristic) system would be applied to our complex reality.

The appliances of Complexity in real life range from subject such as Medicine, Education, Biology, Neurology, Transportation, Communications, Science or even History…this is all disciplines you can ever imagine.

From the very beginning in our history, human beings have been tried to simplify our complex reality with mathematician rules or models, Science theories (Chaos Theory), Medical diagnosis and filosophical thesis. But why? Why this assumption of our reality and this eagerness to make it easier and bearable? Perhaps because of these two facts: first of all… humans probably dislike ?disorder? and? secondly… due to our imperious and domineering, sometimes arrogant but real necessity of giving sense to our lifes.
