You in the Environment
# Primary Whitespace
Forked this page
to be able to present a contradiction, cut the You out of the center of the image and replaced it with Whitespace. This turns the spheres into a Doughnut.
Imagine that you, who are reading this page, are in the environment of political spheres of influence. What would that change? How does that feel to you? What do we think about it now? feenk! (feel and think)
We thought the universe spun around us. That is, until Copernicus recognized that, indeed, not only were we not the center of the universe, but that there was no center at all.
The spheres of politics, i.e., the sovereign, and religion, i.e., God, seem to be seen as the superior ones, at least in common sense - though we emphasize that social subsystems such as religion and politics, but also science or art, have their autonomy.

(de) translated into english in the following.
In his discussion, Niels Werber places particular emphasis on the fact that Luhmann sharply distinguishes generic terms such as religion or politics, which for him denote social systems, from "organizations" such as the church or parliament – even if these organizations like to equate themselves with the spheres in which they exist. Werber is particularly concerned with the "Illusion of Control" of politicians who seriously believe they can intervene in other social systems such as the economy. If one follows Werber's account of Luhmann's system, politicians (but in parallel, e.g., church people), on the other hand, move like goldfish in an aquarium and think it is the world. Indirectly, it can be concluded that only a politician who understands Luhmann also understands what he is – we can already see in our inner eye how they on their parliamentary benches secretly pull the Luhmann out of their pockets to study it!
