The following list is a first draft list that we are building, as a community about publications in academic journals about the Viable System Model. It is a work in progress, and we will soon invite our members to contribute to co-produce a more complete and properly classified list, with links to the resources and hopefully inviting insights from the researchers and practitioners about these resources.
