This paper discusses the notion of repre- sentation and outlines the ideas and questions which led to the organization of this volume. We argue for a distinction between the classical view of referen- tial representation, and the alternative concept of system-relative representation. The latter refers to situated cognitive processes whose dynamics are merely modulated by their environment rather than being instructed and determined by it.
