Man Organizes (Link to Man/Organization) (because of time)

Man organizes to obtain the returns on demonstrated interests by cooperation. and the multiplier of returns on cooperation in a division of labor, and the multiplier of returns on the division of labor from increasing scales of division of labor, specialization, and competition in markets of increasing knowledge, resources, and traditions, norms, rules, of cooperation.

Man organizes positive and negative means:

• Positiva: similarity of interest
  • Genetic Kin Preference (Familial, Kin, Clan, Tribe, Nation),
  • Social, intellectual, cultural, Identity-Tribe (information, validation, inclusion, collective influence, fulfillment)
  • Economic and political networks (consumption, production, capitalization, defense)
• Negativa: the three means of influence to coercion:
  • Seduction to care to inclusion <vs> rejection to undermining to ostracization.
  • Cooperation to trade <vs> non-cooperation to boycott.
  • Dispute resolution to defense <vs> punishment to war.

Man organizes into polities:

• To further Self Determination
• By organizing for the purpose of the satisfaction of shared preferences.
• By obtaining increasing autonomy (exclusivity) via control or limiting the control and determination by others.
• By alliance with those of Common Interests.
• Because of the marginal superiority of discounts on time, effort and resources from opportunities for cooperation in the division of labor, in the production of private and common
• To Produce Private and Common Demonstrated Interests.
• And to obtain Insurance of defense of demonstrated interests and settlement of disputes internal and external to the polity over those demonstrated interests .
• For the marginal benefits of participation in one polity vs another.
• Where the other members of the polity as individuals, groups, governors or rulers are willing to bear the cost of one’s existence in, and participation in that polity.

Summary:

Man organizes into polities to produce discounts on persistence on shared terms toward shared ambitions by the production of commons.

A Polity consists of a population that cooperates in the production of commons by insuring a spectrum of one another’s demonstrated interests from the minimum necessary preserve sufficient suppression of conflict that cooperation and convivium in a sociopolitical organization remains sufficient to preserve the incentive for individuals to remain both conviviant and insurer, and if possible produces common investment in the spectrum of demonstrated interests, whether material, cultural, or institutional.

Polities form in response to a spectrum of incentives from informal: Kinship (family, tribe, ethnicity, nation) to Culture(language, to religion, to civilization), to Economic, to formal: Institutional (territory, government, state, federation, empire), and optimally all four incentives of kin, culture, economic, and institutional.

|Polity Formation|: Kinship (Genetic Relations) > Culture (Cultural Norms, Traditions, Values) > Economic(Production, Trade, and Commerce) > Institutional(Governance and Defense)

AND;

In pursuit of polities, man organizes into Identities, Informal, and Formal polities.

|Political Organization|:  Identities(social inclusion, ambition) > Informal Polities (informal defense) > Formal Polities (institutional defense)

• Identities (proto-polity)
  Where identities consist of
  • Interests: Shared interests (status, reproduction, social, cultural, economic, political.
  • Self Image: Shared self perceptions, and shared external perceptions about others and the world.
  • Structure: Informal structure of leadership and norms
  • Ambitions: Usually seek to create or preserve traditional, normative, economic, political advantages that satisfy group interests.
  • Adaptability: These properties and the people’s behavior are fluid and adaptable because of the absence of structural institutions, leadership, and norms.
  • Membership in an Identity: ( … )
• Informal Polities
  Where Informal Polities consist of tribes, chiefdoms, ethnicities, nations, using, identity, norm, tradition, values and means of dispute resolution enforced by social inclusion and exclusion, and demonstrating the following criteria:
  1. Population: A group of people who identify as members of the polity. The sense of identity and belonging is often foundational.
  2. Identity: A system of measurement that provides profound discounts on cooperation, understanding, and decision making, from metaphysical presumptions of the self, to who to cooperate with on what terms, to who to insure and who one is insured by, consisting of shared culture, values, beliefs, or ideology that help define and unify the members of the polity.
  3. Framework of Rules whether formal or informal: Norms, Customs, Rites, regulations and Laws that govern the behavior of members and the operation of institutions within the polity. This includes a system for resolving disputes.
  4. Possess Limited Political Autonomy: The demand for the ability to self-govern in the sense that they, at least to some degree insure one another’s demonstrated interests.
  5. Capacity for Self Defense to maintain the identity, rules and limited autonomy.
  6. Membership in an Informal Polity: ( … ) 
• Formal Polities
  And in addition to the criteria for an informal polity, Formal Polities consist of City States, Feudal Systems, Principalities, Nation States, States, and Empires as their method of organization, using the following criteria:

1. 1. Territory: A defined geographical area over which the polity has jurisdiction or claims jurisdiction.
   2. Economic System: A system for managing economic activities, including production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services.
   3. Government or Governance System: An established system of processes and procedures for creating and enforcing Rules laws and policies. This can range from democratic institutions to other forms of governance like monarchies, oligarchies, or even tribal leadership.
   4. External Recognition (for sovereign states): Recognition by other polities or international bodies, which is crucial for the establishment of a sovereign state in the international system.
   5. Membership in a Formal Polity Membership in a formal polity requires one is demonstrably insured by both individual and institutional members of a group that has a marginal monopoly of control over the demonstrated interests in one or more territories.

AND;

Polities Create Opportunity for Markets

Man organizes into a spectrum of markets for cooperation in a division of labor

|Scale of Cooperation|: Exchange > Trade > Market

• • Exchange (incentive): parties have an incentive to exchange demonstrated interests.
  • Trade (surpluses): parties produce surpluses for the purpose of benefiting from exchange.
  • Market (competition): Parties compete to satisfy demand for satisfaction of wants.

Within polities, man organizes the spectrum of markets:

|Markets|: Informal (Association, Cooperation) > Reproductive (Reproduction) > Economic (Private, Common) > Formal (Political)

• • The markets for:
    • Association: discounts on opportunities for behavioral regulation, mindfulness, conformity, information, further association, and access to social political and economic opportunities.
    • Cooperation: discounts on opportunities for cooperation, competitive advantage.
  •  Produce:
    • Informal Organizations:  Social Class,  Social Organizations:
      |Social Organization|: acquaintance > associate > friend > collaborator > co-member.
  • And
    • Reproduction: courting, mating, marriage, family, intergenerational familial cooperation and insurance.
  • Produces:
    • Reproductive: Genetic Organization (Familial):
      |Familial|: Self > Family > Clan > Tribe > Nation(Ethnicity) > Race
  • And;
    • Demand for Consumption
    • Capacity for work
    • Production for Consumption
    • Cooperation for Scale of Production
    • Surpluses for Trade
    • Demand for Commons
  • Produce:
    • Economic Organization:
      |Production| Self > Colleague > Partnership > Business > Supply Chain > Industry > Economy > Government(commons)
  • Produce:
    • Production
    • Consumption
    • Capital
    • Commons
  • And Demand for:
    • Resolution of disputes
    • Weights and Measures (measures, norms, guidelines, rules, laws.)
    • Means of investment in commons (Raising capital, taxes)
    • Defense (war)
  • Produce:
    • Formal: Political Organization
    • |Political|: Tribe (headman) > Collection of Tribes: Chiefdom (Chief) > King, Monarch, President(state)> Emperor Supreme Leader(collection of states)

Summary: A Polity Produces A Market of Markets.

Dissolution of a Polity

A Polity does not exist, or a polity dissolves and fragments into different polities, when there there exists demonstrated evidence of the failure to foster and produce common investment in common interests, whether genetic, material, cultural, or institutional, such that incentives to produce common interests are insufficient to preserve the incentive for individuals to remain both conviviant and insurer.

Reasons for Internal Dissolution: All populations demonstrate political resistance, rebellion, revolution, or simple departure due to consistent criteria:

• Illegitimacy(corruption),
• Division (autonomy),
• Internal natural conflict (autonomy),
• External introgression (immigration, non integration as preserving or amplifying autonomy).

There exists a correlation between:

• (a) Population Size: the size of the population with the smaller the greater and faster before answered by political demand, and larger slower before answered with rebellion.
• (b) Asymmetry of Populations: the percentage difference in the asymmetry of the populations at opposition,
• (c) The Reasons for Division Between Populations: Where their opposition ranges from the ideal, to the (…), to the ethnic and cultural, to immigrants or invaders:
  • Ideals: Ideological, philosophical, economic, political, religious differences seeking autonomy to express those differences by political means of institution, law, coercion, education and indoctrination.
  • Natural Divisions: Differences populations by Regions, Cultures, Classes, Abilities, or genetic biases (feminine vs masculine) seeking autonomy to express the group interests.
  • Multi-cultural Multi-Ethic: Polities that consist of territories and ethnicities who have evolved different intersetsand ambitions and seek autonomy.
  • Immigration: All male immigrants, lacking political participation, political redistributions, and prohibited from chain migration can be tolerated at a higher number that the both sexes, political participation, political redistribution, and chain migration. While populations appear to tolerate single digit heterogeneity especially if localized into dense urban neighborhoods, the degree of genetic distance, cultural distance, religious distance, economic distance, increase the resistance to immigration. (“Immigration of non-native people is slavery without insurance.” “Immigration is a means of not paying the internal population sufficient wages  as a means of reducing cost and prices, at the cost of the friction of proximity created by immigrants”)
• Amplified by:
  • (c) The political divisiveness in the population over any issue of self determination given the values attributed to a group’s demonstrated interests
  • (d) The economic condition, particularly differences in income between classes on one hand and wealth generating tolerance during and stressors generating intolerance in wealth’s absence.
  • (f) Genetic disparity in ability between groups (neotenic evolution, inbreeding etc) creating social, economic, and political inequality and resulting friction by proximity.
  • (e) The cultural, and especially religious differences between the groups causing friction in the manners, ethics, morals, traditions, values, of the populations especially in the commons , economy, and politics.
  • (g) The ‘tribal’ dedication of the group to the ingroup and resulting resistance to full integration into the host’s group evolutionary strategy, it’s institutions, religious ethics and moral foundations and philosophies,.
    (h) The ‘tribal’ dedication to change the social, economic, legal, political, and institutional systems to suit their traditions rather than that of the host population.
