Abstract
This article deals with decision making in systems at the level of the society. An earlier paper published in Behavioral Science (Heggen & Cuzán, 1981) argued that government could be reduced to a firm whose behavior is consistent with the laws of microeconomics. This paper builds on that and related articles by Cuzán and Heggen. Several models of political stability in Iberoamerica are developed and tested. Their essential variables are fiscal, military, and electoral. These variables are related in ways that are consistent with Ashby's findings concerning stable systems.
