It is that, while Laszlo centers upon patterns of structure and relationship which are reiterated throughout the hierarchy of entities of the world, Whitehead focuses on
a primordial type of entity, the actual occasion, whose basic processes are found only in its kind and not reiterated in larger arrangements such as nexus and societies.
This ideal realization
of potentialities in a
primordial actual
entity constitutes the metaphysical stability whereby the actual process exemplified general principles
of metaphysics, and attains the ends proper to specific
types of emergent order.
