A score card for ethical decision making

Abstract

General Systems Theory has not tackled the problem of a generally applicable model of human needs, although mention must be made of the works of Terleckyi, van Gigh, Hall, Buchanan and others, who have come closest to it. However, the sociosystemic approach as a whole, which could have been expected to focus on the theoretical and ultimately empirical teleology of social systems (the description and measurement of their goals and therefore their progression/regression as a core task) has not adopted necessarily a ‘sociologising’ point of view, that is to say, it does not contemplate the system from the point of view of the man in the street. This has led to forgetting the central and ultimate aim of Sociology as a science which has to account for collective as opposed to individual efficiency. With a view to merely suggesting an ethical reflection along these lines, I present an axiological approach for calculating the concept of Organizational Efficiency.
