Power dynamics
Principles
The set of laws of power dynamics derived from observation. They are read on three layers: foundational (the conditions under which power conflict exists), mechanism (how it works) and ultimate (the point toward which everything flows — singularity and a single will). Because the dynamics of Physis are independent of scale, actor, era and species, the same mechanism that operates between two individuals operates between two companies, two states or two paradigms.
