Abstract
- Paradox arising from the coincidence of observing and being observed has epistemological implications. Traditional science attempted to eschew the observer and avoid self-reference; modern physics finds this problematic. Educational administration theories must reflect the self-reference of an educational social system's identity and must practice what they describe. (38 references) (MLH)
