According to Jakob von Uexküll and Thomas A. Sebeok, umwelt (plural umwelten; the German word Umwelt means "environment" or "surrounding world") is the "biological foundations that lie at the very epicenter of the study of both communication and signification in the human [and non-human] animal." The term is usually translated as "self-centered world". Uexküll theorised that organisms can have different umwelten, even though they share the same environment.

Each functional component of an umwelt has a meaning and so represents the organism's model of the world. It is also the semiotic world of the organism, including all the meaningful aspects of the world for any particular organism, i.e. it can be water, food, shelter, potential threats, or points of reference for navigation. An organism creates and reshapes its own umwelt when it interacts with the world. This is termed a 'functional circle'. The umwelt theory states that the mind and the world are inseparable, because it is the mind that interprets the world for the organism. Consequently, the umwelten of different organisms differ, which follows from the individuality and uniqueness of the history of every single organism. When two umwelten interact, this creates a semiosphere.

As a term, umwelt also unites all the semiotic processes of an organism into a whole. Internally, an organism is the sum of its parts operating in functional circles and, to survive, all the parts must work together co-operatively. This is termed the 'collective umwelt' which models the organism as a centralised system from the cellular level upward. This requires the semiosis of any one part to be continuously connected to any other semiosis operating within the same organism. If anything disrupts this process, the organism will not operate efficiently. But, when semiosis operates, the organism exhibits goal-oriented or intentional behaviour.

1. Online Casinos und die Umwelt
July 01, 2009

Viele Politiker betrachten Casino Spielen als hervorragenden Weg, Arbeitspl?tze zu schaffen und Geld in den Staat zu bringen, aber im selben Atemzug behaupten sie, sich intensiv f?r die Umwelt zu engagieren. Die Wahrheit aber ist, dass die Lizenzgeb?hren f?r das Gl?cksspiel die Taschen der Politiker f?llen w?hrend sie Kampagnen f?r den Umweltschutz reiten, schlie?lich will jeder sehen, wie die Politiker sich f?r eine saubere Welt einsetzen. Wenn Sie wirklich Sorge um die Umwelt h?tten, w?rden Sie keine Casino Neuer?ffnungen zulassen. Casinos bringen Verkehr und Verbrechen in eine Gegend, die... (read more)

2. Internet-Suchtigen kommt ihre unmittelbare Umwelt unwirklich vor
May 08, 2009

FRANKFURT, im Januar. Als Tom Kittner (Name geandert) im vergangenen Sommer aus seinem Urlaub in England zuruckkam, ging er wie gewohnt sofort an seinen PC und versuchte, sich einzuloggen. Viermal probierte er vergeblich, die Verbindung zum Internet herzustellen. Dann rastete er aus. Es kam eine Wut in ihm hoch, die er so noch nicht erlebt hatte. Er schrie und heulte und verfluchte seine Mutter, die wahrend seiner Abwesenheit den Internetzugang hatte sperren lassen. Wenig fehlte, und er ware gewalttatig geworden. "Es war die Holle", sagt Kittner. "Es war, als hatte man mir mein Leben weggenomm... (read more)
