From childhood friendships and teen pregnancy to criminology and counter-terrorism, theories of social complexity are being applied in almost all areas of sociological research. In the area of communications research and informetrics, the concept of self-organizing systems appears in mid-1990s research related to scientific communications. The measurement of the communication/sharing of meaning among frames of reference for example, in university-industry-government relations is very much on the research agenda of scientometrics (e.g., Leydesdorff & Ivanova, in press), but still a step away from how meaningful communication can further be codified in scientific discourses. The citation impact of Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design can be visualized using its citation relations with journals in its environment as the links of a network. The size of the nodes is varied in correspondence to the relative citation impact in this environment. Additionally, one can correct for the effect of within-journal self -citations.
