Abstract
![CDATA[The research topic takes up the issue of group dynamics within a Global Information System, and a relating question of human rationality. The interests in the area of information systems have concentrated mainly on technological aspects so far. If the human component were taken into account, it has been analyzed from the level of an individual. So have all new concepts of rationality. The detailed project objectives arise from the following research questions: Is collective behavior a phenomenon of exclusively qualitative nature, impossible to structure? Does irrationality of individual actions determine irrationality and unpredictability of the whole social system? A model exemplification of a Global Information System is a modern, electronic stock exchange. The anticipated findings should help formulate a new, adaptive, paradigm of rationality.]]
