Here I collect some ideas and references on diagrams.

There are articles by myself using a diagrammatic approach (A)
and
selected references (B)
which helped me to develop my own approach.

A. My Articles:

1. Social Marketing in Social Policy for Vulnerable Groups (2011)
with Marja Vaarama

2. Sustainable Social Quality (2016)

B. Selected References on diagrams and a diagrammatic approach
