Poole's adaptive structuration theory:
Structuration is the production and reproduction of social systems by people's use of rules and resources in interaction. Communication matters when groups make decisions. The duality of structures means that the rules and resources members use will affect decisions, and in turn those structures will also be affected by those decisions. (Socio-cultural and cybernetic traditions)
