Sociocybernetics and Political Theory in a Complex World: Recasting Constitutionalism
Series:
Author:
In Sociocybernetics and Political Theory in a Complex World, Roberto Mancilla posits that because current political and constitutional theory was crafted since the XVII century, in the age of globalisation, Google and Big Data, other arrangements are needed. He proposes a recasting of the ideas of the State, Separation of Powers, The Public/Private Distinction and Constitutionalism by means of cybernetics, a body of knowledge that gave way to the technology that we have today. This will be done by means of a general introduction to sociocybernetics and complexity and then through the critical dismantling of said concepts of political theory and then proposals imbued with newer ideas.
Roberto Mancilla, J.S.D. (2014), is parliamentary adviser in the Mexican Senate and professor of Parliamentary Law in the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). He has published over 14 articles on cybernetics and sociology, constitutional law and theory.
