System Science in Physics of socio-economic Systems — •Juergen Mimkes — Physics Department Paderborn University

In Physics of socio-economic systems four different fields deal with the same problem: physics, mathematics, economics and social science. Apparently the four fields have the same logic: all systems know order and disorder and the Lagrange law, L = O + T ln P -> max! In physics we have energy and entropy, in materials: solid and liquid, in society: collective and individual, in politics: autocracy and democracy, in all systems: ideal and real. The logic structure: Society * Math * Physics is replaced by more familiar systems e.g., by Society * Water. Both systems follow the same Lagrange law. The knowledge of water is used as system theory, like Empedocles did 2500 years ago: *Friends mix like water and whine, enemies separate like water and oil*. System science is easy to understand and can be applied to solve modern social problems: the integration of refugees in Europe compares to dissolving sugar in tea. The Ukrainian war between autocracy and democracy reflects the problems of ice floating on water. And system science leads to real solutions, as probability ln P looks into the future.
