Summary/Abstract: The feature that separates life of human beings from other living forms is the human dependency on social system. Luhmann's Systems Theory emerges in time of enhanced importance of "structural couplings" concept. Structural coupling gives us room for further analysis of the system-environment relations. The complexity, as a part of every system, creates the "noise", in its attempt/intention to communicate. Congruence formulates dependency, thus opening the space for analysis of socially functional systems.
