There are resonances here with the the [[end-to-end principle]] of network architecture — Brand describes [[complex adaptive system]]s in terms of social structures successive layers. For the internet that is its packet-switching basic layer; for a society it may be chemistry, physics, and biology. The essential way everything is wired. Brand calls this “nature”. To change this is profoundly difficult — any change you make can fundamentally break any layer that depends on it — so any changes that do happen very slowly and deliberately. | There are resonances here with the the [[end-to-end principle]] of network architecture — Brand describes [[complex adaptive system]]s in terms of social structures successive layers.
