Tektology

Tektology (sometimes transliterated as tectology) is a term used by Alexander Bogdanov to describe a new universal science that consisted of unifying all social, biological and physical sciences by considering them as systems of relationships and by seeking the organizational principles that underlie all systems. Tektology is now regarded as a precursor of systems theory and related aspects of synergetics.^[1] The word "tectology" was introduced by Ernst Haeckel,^[2] but Bogdanov used it for a different purpose.^[3]^[4]
