Part IX Independence Within Interdependence: From Differentiated Development to Cooperative Human Action

The preceding parts of this research program examined how a human system may be prepared for demands whose future domain cannot be reliably specified in advance. Part I introduced the Unknown Demand Problem. Part II distinguished the functional domains of Heart, Intellect, and Se...

Part VIII Formation Without Foreknowledge: Human Development Under Unknown Futures

The preceding parts of this research program examined the problem of preparing a human system for demands whose future domain cannot be reliably specified in advance. Part I introduced the Unknown Demand Problem. Part II distinguished domain-specific development from functional c...

Part VII Revelation Is Not Formation: From Hidden-State Prediction to Open Temporal Processes

Probabilistic prediction is frequently described using metaphors of discovery: a model is said to "see" the future, uncover a hidden state, or reveal an event that already exists beyond the present. Such language is useful in some mathematical settings but becomes misleading when...

Part VI From Organizational Investment to Strategic Reorientation: From Resource-Based Negotiating Asymmetry to Path-Dependent Structural Change in Larger Systems

Part V examined how selective and sustained investment across functional domains within an organization may produce unequal accumulated organizational capacity and, consequently, unequal potential negotiating capacity among those domains. Part VI extends the underlying structural...

Part VI From Organizational Investment to Strategic Reorientation: From Resource-Based Negotiating Asymmetry to Path-Dependent Structural Change in Larger Systems

Part V examined how selective and sustained investment across functional domains within an organization may produce unequal accumulated organizational capacity and, consequently, unequal potential negotiating capacity among those domains. Part VI extends the underlying structural...

Part IV From Selective Development to Cross-Domain Training: Internal Negotiation in the Unified Human System

Part I of this research program identified the central difficulty of preparing a human system for future demands whose domain cannot be specified in advance. Part II argued that the human system cannot be treated as a single homogeneous training object because Heart, Intellect, a...

Part IV From Selective Development to Cross-Domain Training: Internal Negotiation in the Unified Human System

Part I of this research program identified the central difficulty of preparing a human system for future demands whose domain cannot be specified in advance. Part II argued that the human system cannot be treated as a single homogeneous training object because Heart, Intellect, a...

Part III Cross-Domain Transfer: How Development in One Domain May Affect Another

Part II of this research program distinguished three functionally differentiated domains within the Human Kingdom model — Heart, Intellect, and Self — and argued that different domains cannot be assumed to respond to identical training methods. It further proposed that functional...

Part V From Selective Development to Organizational Negotiating Capacity: From Internal Negotiation in the Human System to Resource-Based Negotiating Asymmetry in Organizations

Part IV of this research program examined how uneven development across functional domains within the human system may produce differences in the capacity of those domains to contribute to internal negotiation during execution. Part V asks whether a structurally similar relations...

Part III Cross-Domain Transfer: How Development in One Domain May Affect Another

Part II of this research program distinguished three functionally differentiated domains within the Human Kingdom model — Heart, Intellect, and Self — and argued that different domains cannot be assumed to respond to identical training methods. It further proposed that functional...

Part II Training the Human System: Domain-Specific Development and Functional Cooperation

Part I of this research program introduced the Unknown Demand Problem: when the future domain of demand cannot be specified reliably, training cannot be organized entirely around predetermined tasks or environments. It proposed a shift from task-centered preparation toward the de...

Part II Training the Human System: Domain-Specific Development and Functional Cooperation

Part I of this research program introduced the Unknown Demand Problem: when the future domain of demand cannot be specified reliably, training cannot be organized entirely around predetermined tasks or environments. It proposed a shift from task-centered preparation toward the de...

Part III of the Pre-Institutional Intelligence Research Program: The Decision Selection Problem: Selecting One Path from Many Under Uncertainty

Part I of this research program argued that intelligence begins before institutions, at the cognitive transformation of ambiguous reality into meaningful judgment. Part II argued that effective judgment rarely begins at the moment of decision itself, but emerges from an earlier t...

Part II: The Pre-Decision Intelligence Problem: From Training State to Decision State — The Hidden Cognitive Architecture of Intelligence Under Uncertainty

V1.1.0 adds Figure 1 (The Training-to-Decision Transition Model: From Prepared Cognitive States to Adaptive Action), inadvertently omitted from the initial upload. No changes to the text, argument, or references. Part I of this research program (The Pre-Institutional Intelligence...

A Structural Response to "Microsoft Enterprise AI Delivery": Reviewing Microsoft — StratoAtlas CDSA Diagnostic

A structural stress-test, not a rebuttal, of the StratoAtlas brief "Microsoft Enterprise AI Delivery," applying the CDSA method (Tension → Mechanism → Test → Falsifier) to separate the brief's load-bearing claims from its inferred ones. The review confirms the brief's central and...
