Abstract

The Sun Diagram is a diagram made up of symbols. It was developed by the author as a way to describe institution structures, and its full name is the “Graphic Symbol and Rules System for Institution Design”. As this name is rather long and unwieldy, it has also been christened the “Sun Diagram”.
