Partnerships of necessity entail the integration of actors and objectives in a '
chaordic' network, where the various actors combine the various elements of chaos, order, competition and cooperation in an integrated peace and development programme of action (Ricilgiano 2003: 450).

In this world, as Dee Hock describes it in The
Chaordic Age (1999), "success will depend less on rote and more on reason; less on the authority of the few and more on the judgment of many; less on compulsion and more on motivation; less on external control of people and more on discipline." Hock, former CEO of VISA International, envisions a "
chaordic organization" that will meet these demands by giving up traditional top-down control mechanisms in pursuit of flexibility and responsiveness, relying on a blend of competition and cooperation to produce results--chaos and order in perfect balance.

As Hua (2006) reminds us, no diaspora community is homogenous; "diasporic communities and networks are not exempted from sexism, racism, ethnicity, classism, homophobia, ageism, and other discrepancies and prejudices." Because of this contestation, Werbner (2002) describes diasporas as "
chaordic," replete with multiple discourses, dissent, and competition--all within the same diaspora.
Feldman's entirely likeable, utterly refreshing mood music revealed the composer to literally be a lover of the keyboard, his compositional mind caressing the keys in arrhythmic, "
chaordic" new combinations so that it (the keyboard) and its human pianist couldn't possibly become jaded or stuck in either a diatonic or atonal rut.
