本研究探讨了社会科学家和自然科学家如何融合在一个新的本体论方法的科学。这种新方法有三个显著特点。它们包括：（1）将社会和生态整合到一个完全耦合的社会-生态系统视角中，（2）对科学现象的整体看法，需要跨学科的研究方法，（3）驳斥对系统的纯粹基于平衡的理解。我们首先介绍复杂适应系统科学和重新考虑系统理论来探索这一点。接下来，我们来看看复杂适应系统在政治经济学家进行的制度分析中的应用。在此之后，我们展示了生态学家如何使用弹性的概念，将类似的方法应用于生态系统的研究。最后，我们展示了一个不断增长的社会和自然科学家社区如何团结起来，利用社会生态系统框架，采取更全面和跨学科的方法来科学。
This study examines how social and natural scientists converged on a new ontological approach to science. Three distinguishing features comprise this new approach. They include: (1) an integration of the social and ecological into a fully coupled social-ecological systems perspective, (2) a holistic view of scientific phenomena requiring a transdisciplinary approach to its study, and (3) the refutation of a purely equilibrium-based understanding of systems. We explore this by first introducing complex adaptive systems science and reconsidering systems theory. We next look at the application of complex adaptive systems in institutional analyses conducted by political economists. Following this, we show how ecologists used the concept of resilience to apply a similar approach to the study of ecosystems. Finally, we show how a growing community of social and natural scientists have united to utilize a social-ecological systems framework to take a more holistic and transdisciplinary approach to science.
