The classical theories about communication have different views on the relevance of the requirement of the intentionality of the communicative agent. The composition of these views seems to be problematic since it leads to incompatible outcomes when we try to classify communicative behaviors. Some approaches, in order to build a synthesis, shift on the addressee the task of detecting the intentionality and thus cannot account for a number of interesting communicative phenomena. The systemic perspective instead, through the circularity of the inferences on system elements and the sharing of the attributes and the overall communicative characteristics of the system, defines, specifies and more generalizes the concept of communication, enabling to better single out the variety of phenomena connected to it and to catch the emergence of their communicative value.
