The paper outlines and introduces to a more extensive and analytic work. "Complexity paradigm" is criticized for based on a one-sided interpretation of Piaget's work, wrongly associated with ermeneutics. The attempt to link Thom's catastrophe theory, Prigogine's theory of non equilibrium thermodinamic systems, Hake Synergetics, the "new biology" (Lewontin, Gould, Eldredge, Goodwin, Webster), the batesonian Ecology of Mind, Atlan's biophisics, Von Foerster cybernetics, Maturana and Varela's "autopoiesis", is showed as going to fail. Von Glasersfeld's "radical constructivism", and autopoiesis are, in respect to genetic epistemology, partial theories which could be successful in replacing it, but not in fulfilling it.
