Universal Systems Science (USS) foundational quaternary structures [experimental]

This table shows a matrix with 2main axes of the quaternary civilization core components of Power, The human condition, Planetary Boundaries and Adaptation/Communication/Governance VS the 4 primary constraints for life on earth which are the Atmosphere, Overpopulation, Fertility – genetic integrity – ability to reproduce safely, Agriculture and Ecosystems. The pieces of the puzzle are not all correctly aligned or in the correct columns as they should share a commonality among them, but it will do for now as a basic foundation to work from.

Global Fundamental components:    
Civilization core componentsPowerHuman conditionPlanetary BoundariesSocietal and/or environmental Collapse vs Cohesion: Communication/Unions/Human self organization/revolution/ Hive mind collective consciousness
Power:    
Ability to wield powerUncontrolled – limitedControlledBeyond our controlBenevolence selfless/ Malevolence selfish
Wielding powerDistribution and sharing of power – cooperationAbuse of powerNegligence to actResponsibly used/Absolute corruption, chaotic irresponsible freedom
4 Centres of powerPoliticalMonetaryIntellectualEcclesiastical – Faith based principles and cohesion
CommoditiesWealthCapitalResourcesProfit, gain, Investment, create/Gain, waste, divestment, destroy
Governance scales, function and modalitiesGrassroots movements supply Basic needs of the system to persist (reproduction, population)Middle Management carries out large scale operation and developmentTop-Down governance ensures fundamental needs are metCentral Authorities -Delivers expert coordinating policy guidance/Experimental research – Drives transformation and new ways of operating the system – Coordinates communication between all levels at each scale
Cultural Types: Lewis ModelLinear ActiveMulti ActiveReactiveDiplomacy/Anarchy
Distribution of Traditional civilization workforcePrimary sector – 64.5%Secondary sector – 20%Tertiary sector – 15.5%Quaternary sector – Modern civilization (research and development)

The Human Condition:    
Human descriptorsHuman natureHuman conditionHuman experienceHuman error or epiphany/revelation
Thought, emotion, action cycleFeelingsThoughtsDecisionsPositive or negative Action/Inaction
Inter-relational states between others and groupsPrejudice and GreedDiplomacy and CooperationSharingPeace/ War and antagonistic
Brain chemicalsDopamine and adrenalineSerotoninOxytocinMelatonin – sleep/ Cortisol – stress
Brain chemistry levelsLow access due to baseline dearth – depression, discontentAdrenaline, excitement, adventure – Moderated activity to promote wellbeingAdequate brain chemical balance – happiness, joyLove – safety and security/ Fear – hatred
Brain chemistry experience and statesExcess – AddictionsBalanced stable brain chemistryIncrease of brain stimuli (sustainably moderated) and chemicals for support and to appease populationBalanced brain chemistry with additional support to maintain stability in adversity/Lack of brain chemicals – understimulated, stress, instability
Interrelation intervention typesGainCompromise – PragmatismConcession – loss, letting goBalanced approach/ Stalemate, collapse of agreements

(hypothetical) Distribution of shared costs of a space in a shared condominiumSocial Costs – 60% – Basic amenities in a apartment complex eg. Plumbing, Electrics, Hallways, Private Doors, Insulation, Plaster, PaintPrivate Costs – 20% – Desirable amenities for long term private use eg. Fixtures, Lighting, Washing facilities, Windows, Refrigeration, Cooker, Carpets or Flooring, Crockery and cutleryCommunal Costs – 15% – Fundamental components of the complex such as the building itself eg. Land, Foundations, Bricks, Roof, Floors, Adequate space to sleep in, Door, Sanitation servicesPersonal/Voluntary Costs – 5% – Extraneous amenities that may change overtime eg. Tech, Material goods, Furniture, Redecoration
Societal state descriptorsHedonismUtopiaControlled dystopia but humans preservedControlled state of equity among all/ Uncontrolled dystopia – tyranny
Ikigai (purpose)Need for your actions in the worldA love and passion of what you doCompensated for – your vocationAffinity, skill, talent (acquired or natural)/No meaningful life purpose

Adaptation and Communication:    
Human ideologiesSocialism (Social concerns)Capitalism (Beneficiaries of profit from exchange, capital creation or other wealth creation)Communism (Personal and communal concerns eg. family household)Anarchism (Adaptation) – Large collective concerns, ranging from community to global scale)
Currrency and Wealth transformations/potentials?68% existing wealth is TRANSFORMED into ecounits via a steadily increasing inflation rate on existing currencies until it’s worth is devalued into non existence. Requires investment into environmentally friendly profit making business models.14% existing cash is TRANSFERRED into sustainable capitalist credits for uses such as air miles.13% existing wealth is TAXED to be used for purposes of a neo-distributist ego-ethical model framework where nations and nation states pool natural resources and new infrastructure is built using this tax amongst the member states.5% existing wealth is RETAINED as it is in it’s natural currency.
