Design within complexity: strategic action versus program
Certainly, action is decision, a choice, but it also a wager.
In this notion of wager, there is an awareness of risk and of uncertainty.
Every strategy in any possible domain has its consciousness of the wager…
Action is strategy. The word strategy does not mean a predetermined
program we can apply ne variatur over time. Strategy permits, from an initial
decision, to envisage a certain number of scenarios of action, scenarios that
can be modified according to information arriving in the action and according
to chance occurrences that will occur and disrupt the action.

Design within complexity: ecosystemic perspective
[Open] systems that organize their closing (that is to say, their autonomy) in
and by their opening.
Two consequences:
• Their laws of organization are based on disequilibrium;
• Their intelligibility has to be found, not only in the system itself, but also in
its relationship with the environment.

Designing networks and networking design
Designing networks: the dynamic open system of involved actors and their
relations.
Networking design: the design practice of such relations.
