It is proposed that evolutionary processes in living units are fundamentally relational, and that they correlate with waste management or no required variety rather than entropy. The conservation of the culture-nature relationship that emerges as ecopoiesis is the relational viability of human organisation.

He is currently Director of Innovation at the Center for Studies in Relational Theory and Knowledge Systems, and Professor at the Tec Business School in Monterrey, Mexico. He is co-responsible with the Technological Institute of Bolivia for the launch of the International Center for Research in Relational Cybernetics. He developed the relational theory of knowledge together with Dr. Alejandro Malpartida. He developed the Sustainability-based Systemic Relational Viability model for the coherence and congruence of relational networks. He created the concept of Strategic Relay Process Intelligence (Relational Systems). From this conceptual battery, multiple consultancies were developed at a national and international level.

Why did humankind create such a moral and ecological mess of this world, and why have we done that for only about 10,000 years? This question might be related to the Sapient Paradox, which emerged after decades of archeological and neurophysiological research.
Foreshadowing the disasters of the Anthropocene, in the late 1960s Gregory Bateson developed a cybernetic analysis of the environmental crisis which was then starting to be recognised. He argued that its roots lay in dualist fantasies of control of nat …
We are usually unaware that language imposes constraints on how we perceive, think and act, even as it is central to all that we do. What language enables is clearly apparent: all the cultures, technologies and designs we humans have created are ground …
