AbstractA historical review and interpretation of the concepts of field theory, field, field of forces, and order parameter is provided. The historical meaning of these concepts in physics and in psychology is discussed, but emphasis is placed on applications to complex societal systems. Evidence for longitudinal attitude and expectancy change and for social learning is reviewed and interpreted. The mathematical formalization of the key concepts is discussed and representative equations presented. The evolution of the world system‐field over the next two decades is discussed and some likely sources of crises and reconfiguration pointed out. Policy implications of this evolution are noted.
Attachment theory emphasizes both the importance of the availability of caring, supportive relationship partners, beginning in infancy, for developing a sense of safety and security, and the beneficial effects of this sense of security on psychosocial functioning and physical and mental health. In this article, we briefly review basic concepts of attachment theory, focusing on the core construct of attachment security and present evidence concerning the ways in which this sense can be enhanced in adulthood. Specifically, we review findings from laboratory experiments that have momentarily enhanced the sense of attachment security and examined its effects on emotion regulation, psychological functioning, and prosocial behavior. We then review empirical findings and ideas concerning security enhancement by actual relationship partners, non-human symbolic figures, and societal systems in a wide variety of life domains, such as marital relationships, psychotherapy, education, health and medicine, leadership and management, group interactions, religion, law, and government.

World-system dynamics are re-conceptualized as inter-societal systems with some de-emphasis on the notions of core, periphery, and semi-periphery. This tri-part division has been useful in forcing sociology to rethink macro-level sociological analysis and in establishing the importance of considering inter-societal systems as a fundamental unit of human social organization, but this Weberian-like ideal type is constraining theoretical analysis. Moreover, core, periphery, and semi-periphery are not consistently found across a broad range of inter-societal systems, beginning with those among hunting and gathering societies and moving to the current capitalist inter-societal system. Furthermore, the often-implied view that the current geo-economic global system has replaced geo-political systems is overdrawn because geo-economics and geo-politics constantly intersect and interact in all inter-societal systems. Some illustrative general models are drawn for geo-political systems, while abstract principles for geo-political and geo-economic inter-societal relations are articulated. The goal of the paper, then, is to move current world-system analysis back, in a sense, to earlier conceptualizations of geo-economics and geo-politics and empire formations that have always existed among human populations and that now drive the dynamics of the globe today. In this analysis, the seminal work of Christopher Chase-Dunn is referenced as a source of inspiration for this small, but important, shift in analysis and modes of theorizing.

Digital payment systems are being increasingly adopted in both developed and developing economies. The objective of this study is to examine how the adoption of digital payment systems affects communities, societies, and countries. Using a systematic review of the literature, the various societal outcomes affected by digital payment systems are identified, as well as the pathways through which these effects occur. The study's findings may help countries, especially those which are less well-off economically, when they are deciding whether and how much to invest in the infrastructure to support digital payment systems.

An examination of the nature of a potential societal information system. If the modern manag-control system is taken as a prototype, the societal system would be broader based, multifunctional; & more open-ended. The general functions of any information system are detection, evaluation, diagnosis, & guidance to action. The exercise of these functions is easier, to the extent that the problems dealt with are of a relatively narrow range & a relatively repetitive nature. The problems toward which a societal information is directed are not only widely varied but also complex & unique. Given the breadth, complexity, & uniqueness of the problems, the number of actors & evaluators whose information needs must be met, & the lack of consensus on any model of our society, a set of soc indicators closely tailored to more than a few of the potential uses to which it is to be put cannot be devised. In the selection of the indicators themselves, to a large extent reliance must be placed on consensus that certain aspects of the society are 'important' regardless of the societal model one holds. A system such as this is highly reliant on rapid feedback because it is weak on providing anticipations of the full range of consequences of one's actions. Furthermore, the causal relations between one's actions & changes measured by a broad societal information system are indirect & diffused. A good deal of ad hoc, analytic res is required to bridge the gaps of inference in such a system. Modified HA.

A Theory of Employment Systems considers why there are such great international differences in the way employment relations are organized within the firm. Taking account of the growing evidence that international diversity is not being wiped out by 'globalization', it sets out from the theory of the firm first developed by Coase and Simon, and explains why firms and workers should use the employment relationship as the basis for their economic cooperation. The originality of the employment relationship lies in its flexibility. It gives managers the authority to organize work, but it also establishes limits on employees' obligations. The author argues that these limits are provided by four basic types of employment rule.
