Una apreciación sistemodinámica de Gaia

Abstract

In this brief reflection of the topic of dynamic systems and of Tyler Volk‘s essay; professor Medin tries to reveal how thought of the dynamic system is configurated in the theory of Gaia. He is especially interested in the fact that in our culture the thought of dynamic systems is barely cultivated and by consequence it is not used to solve the problems affecting the country. His aim when presenting his commentaries is to stimulate the reader and to provoke interest in the thought of dynamic systems. He explains the computer simulation "Daisyworld" and how the Gaia mechanism illustrated in "Daisyworld" can be understood through the perspective of system dynamics and the three fundamental ideas of this system thinking.
