Abstract

A historical classification shall provide a better understanding and explain the fundamentals of modern complexity management. Thinking about the phenomenon of complexity and dealing with this challenge can be traced back to ancient Greece. From the seventeenth century on, exceptional mathematicians like Isaac Newton and in the nineteenth century philosophers like Emanuel Kant were dealing with complexity and changed the view of the world. And scientific and methodical knowledge about modern complexity management has been aggregated over a time span of approximately 70 years. Significant challenges like those presented by the Second World War, the Cold War and the beginning of astronautics acted as catalysts for developments on complexity management. Thus, complexity management is not an invention made at the end of the twentieth century. It is based on long-term developments originating from different disciplines. This chapter will give a deeper insight into the historical development.
