Holon
Definition:
A holon is a concept that describes something both as a whole and as a part of a larger whole at the same time. It is a term used in systems theory and philosophy.
Examples:
- As a whole, a single cell in the human body functions independently, but as a part of the larger system, it contributes to the overall health and functioning of the organism.
- In systems theory, an organization can be considered a holon, where each department or team functions as a whole within itself but also contributes to the functioning of the entire organization.
