montre que rien de ce qui est vivant n’est vraiment stable, ni en équilibre. Les systèmes complexes sont plutôt soumis à des dynamiques cycliques. Selon la théorie du cycle adaptatif (et de la panarchie) développée par les écologues C. S. Holling et L. H.

Cycles at higher levels of organization tend to proceed more slowly than those at lower levels. This gives the multilevel system its resilience . Rapid low-level turnover enables innovation for adaptation (flexibility), while longer-term dynamics at the higher levels provide the capacity for innovations to accumulate (stability) before more global ...
