Le numéro spécial « Systems Thinking in Anthropology: Understanding Cultural Complexity in the Era of Super-diversity », sous la direction de Bob White (CELAT), Sylvie Genest et Maude Arsenault (CELAT), peut être consulté sur le site web de la revue Humans. « The objective of this Special Issue is to highlight the efforts made by anthropologists and other social scientists to integrate the theoretical framework and methods of systems thinking into their research. Systems thinking is considered here as a modeling methodology that facilitates the understanding of complex cultural phenomena, such as the dynamics of social relations in a cross-cultural context. Among the various lines of research in this area, this Special Issue focuses more specifically on the various phenomena that are encapsulated by the concept of super-diversity, introduced initially by Vertovec in the context of his work on the evolution of migration patterns. »
