Abstract The purpose of this contribution is to give an overview of the role of System Dynamics (SD) in the context of the evolution of the systems movement. This is necessary because SD is often erroneously taken as the systems approach as such, not as part of it. It is also requisite to show that the processes of the evolution of both SD in particular and the Systems Movement as a whole are intimately linked and intertwined. Finally, in view of the purpose of the paper the actual and potential relationships between SD and the other strands of the systems movement are worked out. This way, complementarities and synergies are identified. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
