Emergence
This is an important idea. The whole idea of how change works in human affairs is a science that is developing fast and urgently needed.
Not out yet but on Amazon for pre-order.
The outline – very full – of the book on Emergence by Peggy Holman is on this site.
Book Outline « Engaging Emergence: Turning Upheaval into Opportunity:
This book offers a theory and practice for working with upheaval and uncertainty. It connects what scientists are learning about emergent complexity with experiences change practitioners have from engaging organizations and communities in addressing their needs. This intersection could be called “applied emergence”.

Harnessing Crowds
Harnessing Crowds: Mapping the Genome of Collective Intelligence
A pdf – research on Creative intelligence – “genetic” framework.
One of the important lessons learned in this work is that there are many ways to classify examples of collective intelligence. The framework presented here is certainly not the only one that could be useful. Other frameworks that emphasize different factors could be useful for different purposes. The primary claim made about this framework is that it is useful for understanding the relationships between different kinds of collective intelligence and for generating ideas about new possibilities.

ThinkTank – a development in Cyberspace (like it ot not)
One day soon I’ll write something about this.
Big! Exciting! News: ThinkTank Is Now at Expert Labs | Smarterware:
When I got back 243 informed opinions by savvy netbook owners, I knew I needed a way to easily parse and share the most useful replies–and ThinkTank was born. ThinkTank is a work-in-progress web application that archives your conversations and social graph on Twitter (and eventually beyond). As you tweet, ThinkTank captures, filters, and ranks responses to those tweets so you can see the most useful responses first. In other words, ThinkTank makes it easy to ask your contacts a question and find meaning in a high volume of responses. That’s what makes it a perfect fit for Expert Labs. Expert Labs’ goal is to make government run better by helping policy makers take advantage of the same kinds of crowdsourcing tools that the rest of us take for granted. Expert Labs is also part of the AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science), the world’s largest general scientific community. While you and I can use social networks to figure out what kind of netbook to buy, policy makers can use social networks to tap the expertise of scientists and technologists and inform decisions on how to govern. ThinkTank’s goal is to facilitate that.
