Causal Assembly Theory: Assembly and Disassembly as Causal Processes – Challoner (2026)

John A Challoner’s November 2026 paper, Causal Assembly Theory: Assembly and Disassembly as Causal Processes, examines how entities become components of systems, how organised participation is maintained, and how systems change or break apart. His account connects these processes to physical interactions, transfers, and constraints.

The related free, self-paced General Systems Theory course now lists modules 92–106 on causal assembly. These follow the Foundational Causality paper and modules 81–91 covered here in August.
