Abstract
The concept of 'givens' and 'system boundaries' was utilized to express the researcher's perspective; the givens are those unquestioned, often unarticulated, postulates about 'how things work' which condition one's view of a system. These givens, in turn, influence the boundaries that are perceived to exist when a particular subsystem of society is viewed.
