Abstract
The study of various aspects of organization theory has been undertaken by this author in previous articles in Behavioral Science. In the January, 1958 issue, Models for Man and The Organization of Space were discussed, while in the July, 1959 issue, problems relating to Decision Making, Planning, and The Steady State were explored. Here the author emphasizes synthesis of organization, as opposed to the earlier descriptive analytical studies, with a review of recent literature on simulation studies of social organizations. Simulations thus far have tended to concentrate on such things as management games and war games—a narrow range considering the ultimate possibilities of their use in understanding behavior. What educational and training purposes can simulations be used for? How can we further expand this new method of studying social organizations?
