@fulanigirl@blackmastodon Gregory Bateson, level 3 cont.
"Bateson (1973:276) refers to being driven to level III by contraries’ generated at level II’; The “problem” to which third-order learning is a “solution” consists of systematic contradictions in experience’ (Bredo 1989:35). This matches what we have called elsewhere dilemmas of participation’ (Tosey et al 2005)."
[The paper goes on to mention Level 3 learning can produce psychosis, so not always safe.] https://ia601901.us.archive.org/12/items/gregory-bateson-theory-of-types/Gregory_Bateson_Theory_of_Types.pdf
