Considering the epistemic and ontological sense of principles and functions and the way they contribute to the creation and evolution of institutional structures a model was developed in which the reaction-diffusion of mimes (Dawkins) in a human niche (Popper) is described as a Brusselator that presents far from equilibrium stabilities of Benard-Taylor type. These dynamic stabilities area associated with the formation and evolution of institutional structures leading to a new interpretation of Heraclit’s ‘panta rei’ principle in visualizing human institutional history.
