Governance and Survival near Criticality: Functional Resource Distribution and Distributed Optionality

Governance near a plausible critical transition faces a resource problem in addition to problems of diagnosis, intervention, and evidence. Elevated susceptibility can increase the value of observation, bounded experimentation, and revisability, while waiting can simultaneously co...

Procedural Justice in Heterogeneous Conversion: A Note on Noncommutative Ordering

Heterogeneous conversion procedures can involve recognition, classification, attribution, valuation, authorization, conversion, settlement, contestation, and revision. These operations need not be procedurally interchangeable. An earlier operation can alter the relational configu...

Generative Relational Economics: Chapter 9 - Integrated Design of Generative Relational Research

This chapter develops an integrated design architecture for generative relational research. Building on the preceding chapters on research praxis, relational inquiry, and generative methodology, it shifts the unit of analysis from individual methods to the organization of an enti...

Generative Relational Economics - Chapter 8: Methodologies of Generative Relational Inquiry

Chapter 8 develops the methodological architecture for investigating how relations, configurations, institutions, capacities, constraints, and historical conditions contribute to the generation of later states and possibilities. Building on the relational-evidence framework estab...

Evidence-to-Action near Criticality: A Qualification for EBPM

Evidence-based policymaking (EBPM) uses systematic evidence to inform public decisions, yet the move from evidential support to intervention also depends on whether the response conditions under which the evidence was generated remain sufficiently stable for action. This paper de...

Preliminary Inquiry into Relational Significance under Artificial Functional Sufficiency

This philosophical essay uses a deliberately strong artificial-agent thought experiment to examine the human need for others across material provision, functional cooperation, care, reproduction, intimacy, recognition, and shared social life. The analysis treats dependence on the...

AI-Mediated Academic Labour and the Political Economy of Liberation: From Peer Review to Post-Labour Society

This paper uses the rapid automation of academic work as an empirical entry point for reconsidering labour and liberation under advanced artificial intelligence. Recent systems can mediate literature processing, idea generation, experimentation, manuscript writing, and peer revie...

Toward Generative Relational Economics: A Universal-AI Thought Experiment on the Foundations of Political Economy

This paper uses a universal-AI thought experiment to examine which political-economic structures persist when human labour is extensively replaced by artificial productive agency. The analysis treats productive-subject substitution as a structural test rather than a technological...

Generative Relational Economics - Chapter 3: Constitution and Research Programme of Generative Relational Economics

This chapter provides a preliminary constitution of Generative Relational Economics (GRE) as an emerging economic research programme. Building on the historical conditions examined in Chapter 1 and the intellectual lineages reconstructed in Chapter 2, it specifies the problem-spa...

Generative Relational Economics: Chapter 5: Epistemology of Generative Relational Economics

This chapter develops an epistemological framework for Generative Relational Economics (GRE). Beginning from the distinction among ontological reality, relational reality, and manifestational reality, it examines how relational and generative claims can be warranted under partial...

Rethinking Relation in a Generative Relational Framework

This paper refines the concept of relation within a Generative Relational framework. It develops three coupled registers of reality—ontological, relational, and manifestational—and assigns each a distinct analytical role. Objects are identified through criterion-indexed distingui...

The Age of Heterogeneous Subjects: Artificial Intelligence and the Reopening of Social Theory

This discussion paper argues that artificial intelligence makes newly difficult a simplifying condition that has supported large parts of modern social theory: the practical approximation that the principal participants in social institutions belong to the same basic kind of subj...
