Organizations are autopoietic systems that consist of defined networks of communications or programs. (Luhmann, 1997a, pages 826-847; 2000) They provide a functional structure for communications, which is set up to achieve certain aims and to fulfill specific purposes. Organizations are build to execute complex tasks and to make specific decisions. Organizations deal with interactions as well; through meetings for example, but interactions are not constitutive of the organizations.
