Reflections on Complexity, Evidence, and Law
Ratio Juris, EarlyView.Abstract The pursuit of knowledge in many disciplines is undergoing a transformation from standard reductionist efforts popularly captured by “the scientific method” to embracing the framework of complexity theory and complex adaptive systems. That framework is invaluable to understand both the law of evidence and the nature of the American legal ...

Legal Methodology and Complexity: A Comment on Allen
Ratio Juris, EarlyView.Abstract This article is a response to Ronald J. Allen's “Reflections on Complexity, Evidence, and Law.” I begin by analyzing three key concepts that Allen employs in his argument: reductionism, emergence, and complexity. On the basis of this analysis, I question Allen's criticism of the reductionist approach that, according to him, legal scholarship ...

Risk Analysis, EarlyView.Abstract The transition from one level of operations to a next larger, more complex level while maintaining coherence as a system has stymied organizational theorists for decades. Drawing on systems theory, network analysis, and collaborative governance, we explore how networks adapt during rapidly escalating crises.

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.Short Abstract This article explores the relationship between urban inhabitants and the city through the poetics of three photographers, focusing on how their spatial affection generates visual landscapes. Drawing on theorists like Bachelard, de Certeau, and Deleuze and Guattari, the study examines how photography captures poetical landscapes through ...

What Was Homer Honing in the Odyssey?
Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2025.Abstract We summarize the data provided in Homer's the Odyssey concerning Odysseus' journey and suggest a completely new view of what was Homer trying to convey to us. We suggest that Homer was honing the idea of synergy between rules (determinism) and chance (randomness), an idea deeply rooted in natural processes as well in mathematics.

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2025.Abstract Although the concept of thermodynamic entropy due to Clausius dates back to the early 1850s, the mathematical theory of informational entropy was not developed until the pioneering work of Shannon in 1948, the development of principle of maximum entropy (POME) and theorem of concentration by Jaynes in 1957, principle of minimum cross entropy ...

Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 12, Issue 1, December 2025.Abstract We study convergence problems for the intermediate long wave (ILW) equation, with the depth parameter δ>0$\delta > 0$, in the deep‐water limit (δ→∞$\delta \rightarrow \infty$) and the shallow‐water limit (δ→0$\delta \rightarrow 0$) from a statistical point of view.
