Hi Patricio, it is a great task you have undertaken. I am very interested to
see the results. One thing struck me, your first question: are individuals able
to self-organize when subjected to an unstructured context?
I think this question could be formulated different, because OST is a highly
structured context. It is only a different strucure, just as chaos which is
also structured but in a different way than how we think about structure. One
of my best memories is from an OST with older people, where one of the women,
aged around 75, came to me afterwards and thanked me for the wonderful
structure, so simple and yet so clear.
Good luck with your thesis.

desestructurado?

Organización necesita?

de eficiencia y efectividad?
