Autopoiesis

Autopoiesis literally means "auto (self)-creation" (from the Greek: auto - αυτό for self- and poiesis - ποίησις for creation or production) and expresses a fundamental complementarity between structure and function. The term was originally introduced by Chilean biologists Francisco Varela and Humberto Maturana in 1973: - Compare with Cognitive theory that assumes that external environment and stimuli determines the analyze, decide act model. Has implications for acting and thinking strategically

Compare with Deontic (duty) and Aretaic - virtues or personal excellence to strive towards an individualized character or telos
