PIGNUOLI OCAMPO, Sergio. Double Contingency and Social Order Seen from Niklas Luhmann's Systems Theory. Sociológica (Méx.) [online]. 2013, vol.28, n.78, pp.7-40. ISSN 2007-8358.

This article reconstructs the concept of double contingency in Niklas Luhmann's social systems theory. Our analysis is organized around three axes. First, we study the connection between the problems of double contingency and of social order, outstanding among which are the critical reception of Talcott Parsons and phenomenology. In the second, we examine the hypothesis of the emergence of social order, where the reception of early German romanticism and the theory of emergence are particularly relevant. In the third, we dialogue with the secondary bibliography, fundamental for situating and contextualizing the reconstruction achieved.
