Abstract
In this chapter, the complex adaptive system Encounter is explored. It is demonstrated that Encounter is an integral part of the interaction supercomplex adaptive system as it is the system that has the role of positioning and determining interaction in relation to its environment. To fully understand this role, it is essential to take a look at its three sub-systems; event, context and enjeux, and how they interconnect in this system. Enjeux is a French term that is used to mean stakes or power relations. At the end of the chapter, there is an explanation of why this sub-system can be considered to be a complex adaptive system and what its role in the overarching system is. Once again a detailed example is included in order to see how this system is transposed into everyday life.
