JIMENEZ VIVAS, Pedro. El léxico sociopolítico en Niklas Luhmann. Polít. cult. [online]. 2013, n.39, pp.167-197. ISSN 0188-7742.

This article is meant to show the importance of a socio-political lexicon of the "system theory" developed by Niklas Luhmann, as well as its current relevance in the field of theoretical development. The main idea presented in this study is related to a conceptual epistemology that is able to incorporate different types of results and solutions, which are reflected in different phenomena of modern society. The ten analyzed concepts have an essential relation to the phenomena of politics and other expressions of social life. Finally, this paper can be taken as an introduction to the study of system theory and its relation to the different political scenarios.
