Each year, prior to the Symposium, the Athens Ekistic Week was held, involving the Symposium participants in a larger meeting.
Finally, he formulated a general theory which considers human settlements as living organisms capable of evolution, an evolution that might be guided by Man using " Ekistic knowledge ".
This is a mistake for which we pay very heavily . Having recorded very successfully the destructions of the ekistic wealth in Greece during WWII, Doxiadis became convinced that human settlements are subjectable to systematic investigation.
As a scientific mode of study, ekistics currently relies on statistics and description, organized in five "'ekistic elements or principles "': nature, anthropos, society, shells, and networks.
Doxiadis being aware of the unifying power of systems thinking and particularly of the biological and evolutionary reference models as used by many famous biologists-philosophers of his generation, especially Sir Julian Huxley ( 1887 1975 ), Theodosius Dobzhansky ( 1900 75 ), Dennis Gabor ( 1900 79 ), Ren?Dubos ( 1901 82 ), George G . Simpson ( 1902 84 ), and Conrad Waddington ( 1905 75 ), used the biological model to describe the " Ekistic behavior " of Anthropos ( the five principles ) and the evolutionary model to explain the morphogenesis of human settlements ( the eleven forces, the hierarchical structure of human settlements, dynapolis, ecumenopolis ).
