Environment is always simultaneous. Therefore, we cannot react to it. >Environment/Talcott Parsons. Alfred Schütz (1932)(1): no one ages faster. Luhmann: Everything that happens, happens simultaneously. Therefore, we can do nothing. The system can only treat its own recursion, not the environment. >Recursion. Problem of synchronization: always requires intervention in no longer changeable, past and still insecure, indeterminate future. >Future. This involves control ideas and causal ideas. 1. Schütz, Alfred (1932). Der sinnhafte Aufbau der sozialen Welt. Eine Einleitung in die verstehende Soziologie. Wien: Springer. AU Cass 9 Time/observation/Luhmann: Observing is the operation of differentiation. Question: who differentiates? Tradition: the distinction results in the categories past, present, future. These categories make time look like a stretch. >Past, >Present, >Future, >Time. AU Cass 9 Time/simultaneity/Luhmann: when I say everything that happens, happens simultaneously, I say basically nothing at all about time. Antonym: asynchrony. But that does not say anything about it. It is all about observation as a distinction. Punch line: Future and past occur always at the same time. ((s) In the distinction.) Asymmetry: only one side of the distinction may be needed. >Asymmetry. AU Cass 9 Time/Luhmann: with the "before"/"after" one can renounce the idea of ​​movement. - Also the attribution of causality. Causality/Luhmann: But the distinction "before"/"after" must precede considerations for causality. Other distinction: future/past. Past: Husserl's horizon: before the "before" there was a different "before" etc. >Horizon/Husserl. Luhmann: Future is then a horizon that can be filled by a series of "afterwards". --- AU Cass 10 Time/Luhmann: movement is not enough for their definition, because the time is not moving past us. - This saw Aristotle already. Motion/Hegel/Aristotle: motion is what being differentiates from non-being. >Motion/Aristotle, >Change/Aristotle.}, note = { AU I N.
