wholism
Everything connects philosophy
Wholism is an alternative spelling of holism—the idea that systems should be understood as complete entities rather than as collections of parts.
The spelling with W makes the connection to "whole" explicit, though "holism" (from Greek *holos*) is far more common in academic and scientific writing.
Both forms appear in discussions of medicine, ecology, and philosophy.
