From Endured Dependence to Chosen Solidarity
Four research paths to measure avoidable suffering, test the limits of agentic systems and compare whether chosen solidarity can solve problems that competition, orders or negotiation cannot.
Field practice supplies documented problems and design evidence for new research questions (TRL 1–2), experimental proof of concept (TRL 3), and applied validation or demonstration in relevant environments (TRL 4–6). Operational maturity of the source case does not automatically transfer to the new model; TRL 7–9 require separate evidence.
Methodological note · Reading this series The architectural-continuity account supplies field lineage and dated artifacts. The case-extraction framework describes how a bounded question can be developed from them. Applied research retains three states: what the case records, what a formulation proposes and what a specified test establishes. Readiness and institutional acceptance are assessed separately.
