Niklas Luhmanns Systemtheorie und Charles S. Peirces Zeichentheorie : Zur Konstruktion Eines Zeichensystems

This study is the first to make a systematic attempt to relate the universal theories of Niklas Luhmann (1927-1998) and Charles S. Peirce (1839-1914) to one another. On the basis of a critical functional analysis of systems theory and semiotic theory, a newly designed semiotic system is proposed that displays a higher resolution and recombination potential than the individual disciplines involved. The theoretical results can be used as a foundation for dealing with concrete linguistic, literary, or sociological problems. In addition, the book can be read as an introduction to the thinking of Luhmann and Peirce.Scheibmayr, Werner is the author of 'Niklas Luhmanns Systemtheorie und Charles S.
