Learning II is learning to learn. Learning III - Hyper-complexity: Learning III is a change in the process of Learning II, e.g. a corrective change in the system of sets of alternatives from which a choice is made. It works much as Learning II but on a higher level of abstraction.

1. Mark Koyama: "The leading modern day cyclical theorist is undoubtedly Peter Turchin. For my money Turchin’s best book is Secular Cycles(co-authored with Sergey A. Nefedov).

The Roman Secular Cycle
Scott Alexander: "Eight chapters are case studies of eight different historical periods and how they followed the secular cycle model. For example, Chapter 7 is on the Roman Empire. It starts with Augustus in 27 BC. The Roman Republic has just undergone a hundred years of civil war, from the Gracchi to Marius to Sulla to Pompey to Caesar to Antony. All of this decreased its population by 30% from its second-century peak. That means things are set to get a lot better very quickly. The expansio...
Building on this foundation and integrating Gregory Bateson’s notion of Learning I (linear), Learning II (complex), and Learning III (hyper-complex), others have proposed the notion of triple-loop learning. For example, Richard Hummelbrunner proposes triple-loop
