In this series I introduce the building blocks of a model of human interaction, trying to find the key factors and define the language with which to describe real world effects and interventions.
The model is evolved from the ground up by testing all building blocks and concepts in competitions.
The model demonstrates how social structures and advanced cooperation emerges from individuals initially behaving mostly self-interested, providing they have the capability to
recognize and join into mutually beneficial arrangements.
The model then evolves further as the arrangements enable the division of costs and benefits in accordance to the negotiating power of partaking individuals. We set out with an egal distribution of resources and results. Pure luck introduces small differences between individuals. Some have access to more resources, some achive better results. As cooperation progresses and the model evolves, small differences appear to set the path for bigger differences. These bigger differences give rise to individuals with a better position in their arrangements, giving them better results which further improves their position.
The next stage adds another layer of complexity to the model: the evolution and division of (State)functions. To bind groups together and provide stability, the model needs some overarching functions. Where the fruits of the division of labour are for the needs of the individual, functions provide for the needs of a system of cooperating groups. They primarily deal with conflict.
In the final stage of the model, one entity is bound to territory and provides what we can now call the State-functions to all inhabitants of the territory. The entity is not an individual but a group, but this group still needs to be coördinated. The model organizes the competition between several strategies for these individuals and several arrangements between the state faction and the groups in the state.
