ABSTRACT Our condition of community of System Dynamics (SD) practitioners is threatened. This threat stems from our own practice. One of the sources of this threat is a deep contradiction in the foundations of our discipline. However, the threat arises not so much from the existence of the contradictions as such as from their hidden status. The latter is weakening what we think is the original “call” that moves the community of SD, namely: to work toward a systemic approach which overcomes the fragmentation of our world and our life. This “call” means that SD is founded on twothinkings: the systemic one and the anti-systemic (fragmenting) one. Anti-systemic thinking is not an exogenous “enemy” but a constitutive part of SD practice. Its victorious and hidden presence inside SD is the source of deep contradictions. In order to acknowledge this threat, and maybe transcend it, we need to place SD practice on a historical context. This can help us to thoroughly understand the “call” of SD and, consequently, the two thinkings which actually constitute it. http://www.systemdynamics.org/conferences/1998/PROCEED/abstracts.pdf
