wepollock Warren Pollock Everyone thinks he knows the meaning of the word structure. We point to a stone wall or a bridge or a barn and say, If we understood a little more about structure, it could lead to a better understanding of the political and economic dilemmas of our time. Political and economic systems are structures often so ill-conceived as to require constant local patching and mending. Even structural engineering has as yet failed to comprehend adequately or to define and cope with structure. All economic models must conform to the natural structure of the world/universe. To do so we need to simplify the model by looking at trajectories (between inward and outward). These trajectories can be critical thinking tools. Overlaid these vectors provide us with a model of economic structure. We know the smallest self supporting structure is tetrahedron based therefore out economic model must have six to many elements-vectors of consideration. Structures are complexes of visible or invisible events interacting to form stable patterns. So our economic system is a stable pattern subject to instability should one of the vectors move out of alignment. Six major elements to study include The physical world, human capital, transportation, technology, law, and monetary structure. Presently several of these elements are at risk of failure. Corporations and governments now look at the world from a standpoint of depletion and Malthusian-Darwinian shortage. We need to look at the world based on Fuller's Ephermeralization; that is the principle of doing more with ever less weight, time, and ergs per given level of functional performance. Out knowledge consists of artifacts of technology developed mostly through the process of war. We need to view technology as a major tuning paramater and as a useful vocation-use of human capital. Presently we do not consider total costing, the role of technology, military projection, the physical world. Pollock's Theory is based on the works of R Buckminster Fuller.
