Revisiting Names for Structural Hierarchies

History

Naming frameworks has always been far more difficult than naming their constituting taxonomic entities. This is because of the lack of a conceptualization.
See the investigation of naming.

However, that investigation and the associated conceptualization has been successful. It has led to a logic for naming that appears to work in practice by:

facilitating understanding in particular frameworks,
improving consistency across Domains, and
ensuring coherence of the taxonomic architecture as a whole.

Note: The framework names used in the Satellites were developed with an eye to the most appealing use of the framework under study. So, while they always accord with formal names as developed within present investigations, they are not necessarily identical.

Current Formal Names

As noted at the outset, structural hierarchies are best understood within their "Triplet". Current proposed names for the Domain's Fundamental sH-Triplets are shown below. Note that these are unique names, only determinable by careful observation and abstraction.

Domain	Tree: Primal Vehicle	sH: Primal Effect	Tree: Primal Field
RL7: Willingness	A Committed Involvement	Contributing Expertise	A Humane Assistance (??)
RL6: Purpose	A Worthwhile Project	Realizing Values	A Community Evolution
RL5: Communication	An Intentional Expression	Creating Discourse	A Vibrant Group
RL4: Experience	An Authentic Perspective	Manifesting Character	A Motivated Presence
RL3: Change	A Definitive Stage	Changing Systems	A Sustained Development
RL2: Inquiry	A Rigorous Analysis	Making Discoveries	A Scientific Study
RL1: Action	A Deliberate Activity	Producing Results	A Credible Course
RH: Endeavour	A Personal Endeavour	Being Creative	A Constructive Entanglement

See the recent investigation dealing with naming of domain controls.

Briefly: The Spiral name is the Primal Means. The modes at each Stage promote the psychosocial pressure and handle the social situation. The essence of the Mode directly generates the pressure, and so the Tree constructed out of these determines handling of the Primal Need (which is what relieves the pressure). For the same reason the structural hierarchy is made of up combinations of ways to respond to the psychosocial pressure, and is therefore named by reference to it. Finally, the emergent sH-Tree provides for control. The resultant set of names is shown below.

Domain Spiral	Spiral Tree: Principal Control Vehicle	Spiral-derived sH: Principal Control Effect	Spiral sH-Tree: Principal Control Field
RL7: Willingness Means: Effectiveness	Determinants of Competence (?)	Maintaining Selflessness	A Humane Assistance (??)
RL6: Purpose Means: Politics	Determinants of Governance	Exercising Autonomy	Political Participation
RL5: Communic'n Means: Shared Reality	Determinants of Association	Enabling Understanding	Contestation of Conceptions
RL4: Experience Means: Sense of Self	Determinants of Individuality	Sustaining Well-being	Adaptation of a Sense of Self
RL3: Change Means: Depiction	Determinants of Differentiation	Defending Acceptability	Categorization of Depictions(??)
RL2: Inquiry Means: Conjecture	Determinants of Knowledge	Increasing Certainty	Evaluation of Conjectures
RL1: Action Means: Management	Determinants of Achievement	Improving Performance	Expectations of Management
RH: Will Means: Coping	Determinants of Thriving	Ensuring Survival	................. of Coping (??)
