It does so in the light of finding answers to the general question posed in this book series: Will Late Modernity be replaced by a social formation that could be called Morphogenic Society? This volume clarifies what a ℓ́ℓgenerative mechanismℓ́ℓ is, to achieve a better understanding of their social origins, and to delineate in what way such mechanisms exert effects within a current social formation, either stabilizing it or leading to changes potentially replacing it . The book explores questions about conjuncture, convergence and countervailing effects of morphogenetic mechanisms in order to assess their impact. Simultaneously, it looks at how products of positive feedback intertwine with the results of (morphostatic) negative feedback. This process also requires clarification, especially about the conditions under which morphostasis prevails over morphogenesis and vice versa. It raises the issue as to whether their co-existence can be other than short-lived. The volume addresses whether or not there also is a process of ℓ́ℓmorpho-necrosisℓ́ℓ, i.e. the ultimate demise of certain morphostatic mechanisms, such that they cannot ℓ́ℓrecoverℓ́ℓ. The book concludes that not only are generative mechanisms required to explain associations between variables involved in the replacement of Late Modernity by Morphogenic Society, but they are also robust enough to account for cases and times when such variables show no significant correlations. 000725712 650_0 $$aSocial change. 000725712 650_0 $$aSocial evolution. 000725712 7001_ $$aArcher, Margaret S.$$q(Margaret Scotford)$$eeditor. 000725712 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319137728 000725712 830_0 $$aSocial morphogenesis. 000725712 852__ $$bebk 000725712 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-13773-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000725712 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:725712$$pGLOBAL_SET 000725712 980__ $$aEBOOK 000725712 980__ $$aBIB 000725712 982__ $$aEbook 000725712 983__ $$aOnline 000725712 994__ $$a92$$bISE
