Description
The Institution as Hard-Matter explores what happens when adaptive systems lose their capacity to change. Drawing on insights from health, biology, systems thinking, and organisational behaviour, the book examines how individuals and institutions can become hardened, rigid, and increasingly disconnected from reality. Through discussions of trust, truth, uncertainty, freedom, and meaning, it argues that health and resilience depend not on control or certainty but on the ability to adapt to changing circumstances. Accessible and thought-provoking, this book offers a framework for understanding why organisations stagnate, why societies become polarised, and how adaptive potential can be restored.
