IFSR Newsletter 2005 Vol. 23 No. 1 December
As already reported the IFSR Newsletter No. 22, the IFSR was instrumental in acquiring Ludwig von Bertalanffy’s scientific legacy and bringing it to Vienna. Under the lead Wolfgang Hofkirchner, now University Salzburg, Salzburg, the Bertalanffy Center for the Study of Systems Science was founded. Although its objectives are much wider, the first task is to preserve, register, and scientifically analyze Bertalanffy’s legacy.
As a first step all books, journals, publications and especially the letters had been registered an archived. The legacy consisted of some 500 personal letters, 150 monographies, many of them with personal dedications, especially from the fields of biology, systems theory and philosophy.
After the first quick registration now the real works starts with details analysis and correlation.
