Resumo: The systemic approach emerged from the difficulty in using the analytical approach to explain complex phenomena that were influenced by the context and the interrelationships. Complex systems are represented by dynamic situations in which problems change when interacting with other problems. They illustrate a problematic situation where it is difficult to express the causes and consequences, as it presents interdependent and continuous multi-causalities characteristics. Aspects initially noted as causes, turn into effects and vice versa. The symptoms and the problem are indissociable and the solutions produce unintended consequences. These aspects apply to the problem of drought and water resources management. Therefore, this article aims to present an initial conceptual sketch of a systemic analysis of the problem of drought. The data were collected during the survey entitled "Drought in Western Santa Catarina: Assessment and Resilience" and were the basis for this preliminary systemic investigation. Specifically, three systems archetypes presents the "history of classical systems" as they promote the understanding and identification of reinforcing and balancing loops; two sketches of general diagrams and a consolidated causal loop diagram representing the result of the initial analysis. The study’s challenge was the limits definition that is a part of systems approach, while facing a limited access to information. As a learning system, each analysis brings new information and allows different interpretations of the problems and solutions of drought.

Os sistemas complexos são caracterizados por situações dinâmicas nas quais os problemas mudam ao interagir com outros problemas. Representam uma situação problemática para a qual é difícil formular as causas e consequências, uma vez que apresentam características de interdependência e multi-causalidades contínuas, circulares. Certos aspectos, vistos como causas, viram efeitos e vice-versa. Os sintomas são confundidos com o problema e as soluções produzem consequências inesperadas. Essas características se aplicam à problemática da estiagem e da gestão de recursos hídricos. O artigo, assim, objetiva apresentar os primeiros esboços conceituais de uma análise sistêmica do problema da estiagem em Santa Catarina. Foram utilizados os dados coletados durante a pesquisa intitulada “Estiagem no Oeste Catarinense: Diagnóstico e Resiliência” como a base para este estudo sistêmico preliminar. Especificamente, são apresentados três exemplos de arquétipos, ou seja, “histórias clássicas dos sistemas” aplicados ao entendimento de uma situação e à identificação dos ciclos de reforço e equilíbrio no contexto de pesquisa; dois esboços de diagramas causais gerais e um diagrama de ciclo causal consolidado que representa o resultado inicial da análise. O estudo teve o desafio de atender aos limites inerentes às teorias sistêmicas, ao mesmo tempo em que foi limitado em seu acesso às informações. Como um sistema de aprendizado, cada análise traz novas informações e possibilita diferente interpretações dos problemas e soluções da estiagem.Universidade Estadual de Campinas2015-12-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/labore/article/view/864249710.20396/lobore.v9i4.8642497Labor e Engenho; Vol. 9 No. 4 (2015): out./dez.; 34-50Labor e Engenho; Vol. 9 Núm. 4 (2015): out./dez.; 34-50Labor e Engenho; v. 9 n. 4 (2015): out./dez.; 34-502176-8846reponame:Labor & Engenho (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)instacron:UNICAMPporhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/labore/article/view/8642497/pdfBrasilCopyright (c) 2015 Labor & Engenhoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFreitas, Mário Jorge Cardoso CoelhoKaetsu, Patrícia Taeko2019-08-02T07:05:11Zoai:ojs.periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br:article/8642497Revistahttp://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/laborePUBhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/labore/oai||argollo@fec.unicamp.br2176-88461981-1152opendoar:2019-08-02T07:05:11Labor & Engenho (Online) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)false
