Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Reflect on complexity and complex systems, present in everyday social phenomena, manifest and increasingly perceived in daily life. METHOD: A literature review was carried out based on three fundamental Works; The eighth knowledge by Morin and Domínguez Gómez, The seven knowledge necessary for the education of the future by Morin and Complexity and Complex Systems by Tarride. The interpretation of these texts was carried out using the hermeneutic approach. RESULTS: That complexity is an intrinsic characteristic of systems composed of many interrelated parts. The study of complexity, although it appears to provide an understanding of the world, paradoxically contributes to its increasing complexity. Furthermore, dualities (order-disorder, chaos-order) were identified as inseparable elements in human behavior and its environment. UNFINISHED REFLECTION: The study of complex systems reveals an inherent paradox as one attempts to understand complexity, the interconnectedness and inseparability of opposites is highlighted, resulting in a greater perception of complexity.
