Meet the Author Series: The Evolutionary Dynamics of Discursive 
Knowledge: Communication-Theoretical Perspectives on an Empirical 
Philosophy of Science July 28, 2022 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM (EDT)

Description
The book brings together three themes which have been central to my 
research program: (1) the dynamics of science, technology, and 
innovation; (2) the scientometric operationalization and measurement of 
these dynamics; and (3) the Triple Helix (TH) of 
university-industry-government relations. I relate these three themes 
first from an autobiographical perspective to (i)) Luhmann’s 
sociological theory about meaning-processing in communications with (ii) 
information-theoretical operationalizations of the possible synergies in 
Triple-Helix relations, and with (iii) anticipation as a selection 
mechanism in cultural evolutions different from “natural selection.” 
Interacting selection mechanisms can drive the development of 
redundancy; that is, options that are available, but have not yet been 
used. An increasing number of options is crucial for the viability of 
innovation systems more than is past performance. A calculus of 
redundancy different from and complementary to information calculus is 
envisaged.The webinar focuses on his book entitled “The Evolutionary 
Dynamics of Discursive Knowledge: .” (The book is freely available at
