The resonance of Mike Jackson’s work with the use of systems ideas in community operational research. In Systems Research and Behavioral Science. Wiley. https://doi.org/10.1002/sres.3100https://scripta.up.edu.mx/handle/20.500.12552/1180610.1002/sres.3100The body of work of Mike Jackson covers several major themes in OR/Systems Thinking and articulates key aspects of Critical Systems Thinking; with an interest throughout in applications to complex social challenges. In this paper, as a direct response to this Festschrift, and acknowledging his contribution to Community OR, five active UK-based researchers have engaged in their own process of community-based learning in order to articulate the ways Jackson's work resonates with their contemporary research and practice. The researchers used a variation of the Delphi method to reflect first on the ways that the body of work of Jackson resonated with their practice and research agendas. This produced a framework of ideas. Examples from the UK and overseas are then provided to illustrate these points. Ultimately, the researchers used these experiences and reflections to produce a series of statements for developing Community OR practice (and theory)—reflecting and extending Jackson's work. ©The authors ©John Wiley and Sons Ltd.enAcceso AbiertoCommunity ORJacksonOR/SystemsSystems thinkingResource Types::text::journal::journal article
