I.e., Luhmen is yet another social scientist who portrays societies as monoliths. While there may be sociological reasons for such notions, there certainly aren't empirical ones. --Christian Nelson
I think given the extensive definition of society that any and all empirical evidence would prove the case... I think one would be hard-pressed to find evidence contrary because it is really a definitional constraint ie all a are b, not an empirical one if it is a, then it is b. jeremy hunsinger jhuns@vt.edu on the ibook www.cddc.vt.edu www.cddc.vt.edu/jeremy www.dromocracy.com
