Systems Interaction
Sergey Pereselgin formulated structure interactions principle. Sorry, only Russian verion is available. http://www.igstab.ru/materials/Pereslegin/Per_Interact.htm http://www.igstab.ru/materials/Pereslegin/Per_Dialect.htm Unfortunately, he covers only some special cases. I tried to cover the whole picture
Same-level systems
| B: Agrees to reach some goal for A | B: Gives Resources to A | B: Threatens A | B: Nothing | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A: Agrees to reach some goal for B | Goals Barter | B - Employer of A | B - Master, A - slave | B outwits A; or A altruistically helps B |
| A: Gives Resources to B | A - employer of B | Resources barter | B robs A | B steals from A or cheats |
| A: Threatens B | A - Master, B - slave | A robs B | Threaten exchange, fight | B ignores threaten from A |
| A: Nothing | A outwits B; or B altruistically helps A | A steals from B or cheats | A ignores threaten from B | A and B ignore each other |
A is supersystem of B
| B: Agrees to reach some goal for A | B: Gives Resources to A | B: Threatens A | B: Nothing | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A: Agrees to reach some goal for B | Communist Society | Capitalist Sosiety | Political protest | Fight against government |
| A: Gives Resources to B | Socialist Society | Community | Strike | Social assistance system |
| A: Threatens B | Slavery | Tribute | Agressive standoff | Weak dictatorship (people ignore threats from the government) |
| A: Nothing | Voluntary subordination | Voluntary donation | Strong dictatorship (ignores threats from the people) | Anarchy |
