Everything about Organicism totally explained
Organicism is a philosophical orientation that asserts that reality is best understood as an organic whole. By definition it's close to
holism.
Plato,
Hobbes or
Constantin Brunner are examples of such philosophical thought.
Organicism is also a
biological doctrine that stresses the organization, rather than the composition, of
organisms.
William Emerson Ritter coined the term in
1919. Organicism became well-accepted in the
20th century.
Organicism' has also been used to characterize notions put forth by various late 19th-century social scientists who considered human society to be analogous to an organism, and individual humans to be analogous to the cells of an organism. This sort of organicist sociology was articulated by Alfred Espinas,
Paul von Lilienfeld, Jacques Novicow,
Albert Schäffle,
Herbert Spencer, and
René Worms, among others (Barberis 2003: 54).
