Meta-typology of social systems aims to establish a framework for the comparison of social systems. The essence of its method is to use a set of meta-types, called Y-type, M-type and O-type, into which any social sub-system can be classified, and to use, as the description of the total system for comparsion, the sequence of the meta-types into which its functional sub-systems are classified. Thus, a society is characterised by MMMM, whereas another by MMOO. Y-type, M-type and O-type signify the types of social system emerged from the repetition of the three fundamental types of social action, order-obedience, consent-exchange, and conference-cooperation, respectively, and these types of social action are, it is shown, just those stable types of nteraction emerging out of the process of reciprocal selection of actions by actors under the condition of double contingency.
