As a synergic scientist I study how systems work together. How the parts composing a system relate to each other. Those parts that work against each other produce the weakest whole systems. Those parts that ignore each other do better, but still are quite limited producing only average or fair systems. Those parts that work together to mutual benefit create the post powerful whole systems.
Parts that hurt each other and work against have lose/win or lose/lose relationships. One fox plus one rabbit equals only one fox.
Parts that ignore each other and work independently have draw¦draw relationships. We trade things of equal value. We have our anonymous great market. One plus one is always equal to 2 or a little less for our fair profit.
Parts that help each other and work together have win-win relationships. One plus one is always more than two, sometimes many more than two.
Synergic scientists are strongly biased towards win-win engineering. For many years I imagined what would a win-win economic system look like? What kind of money or currency would it use?
Imagine my surprise, to discover that a win-win economy transcends money.
