• Autopoiesis<br />
– Thus, its organization is constituted by relations between<br />
components that by their interaction and transformation<br />
continuously regenerate the network <strong>of</strong> processes that<br />
produce them<br />
– That is, the relations among components -- a network <strong>of</strong><br />
processes <strong>of</strong> production --- produce the components<br />
themselves<br />
– A significant aspect <strong>of</strong> autopoiesis is that its function is to<br />
`create and maintain the unity that distinguishes it from the<br />
medium in which it exists'.<br />
