Word origin
The term 'systemically' is derived from the root word 'system', which comes from the Greek word 'systēma', meaning a whole made of parts, or a system. The word 'system' first entered the English language in the late 14th century and was associated with the idea of arrangement or order. The adverbial form 'systemically' emerged in the mid-20th century as various disciplines, particularly in the sciences and social sciences, began to emphasize the importance of considering whole systems in analysis and problem-solving. This shift reflected a broader understanding that many issues, particularly those in biology, ecology, and sociology, cannot be fully comprehended by examining their isolated components. Instead, a systemic approach recognizes the interconnections and relationships within the system, leading to more effective strategies and solutions. As a result, 'systemically' has become an essential term in discussions around systemic risks, systemic changes, and holistic approaches to numerous fields.
