I have created "CAMS-CAN" the (Common Adaptive Model State/ Catch All Network) framework which provides a unique way of understanding how societies function by looking at the various centers of power, or "nodes," seeking to maintain stability and resilience. Like the organs in a living body: each node its own role, but the health of the body depends on how well they work together. 1. Understanding Power Distribution In any society, different groups or institutions hold power. CAMS identifies key "nodes" such as: The Executive (Government): Makes laws, enforces policies. Property Owners: Control wealth and resources. The Army: Provides security and defense. Trades and Professions: Represents the skilled workforce. The Proletariat (Working Class): The majority who drive economic activity. The Priesthood (Intellectual and Cultural Leaders): Influences ideology and culture. State Memory: Bureaucratic and legal institutions that ensure continuity. The Storekeepers: Merchants and businesses that manage the economy’s flow. State Checksums: The public sphere where ideas and policies are scrutinized through rational discourse. By observing these nodes, you can better understand how societies operate and where power struggles might happen. For instance, if the executive oversteps, it might undermine the role of State Checksums (public debate) or if property owners hold too much influence, inequality could grow. 2. Explaining Societal Stability or Collapse The model helps explain why some states thrive and others collapse. By comparing historical cases, we can see how the balance between nodes affects stability. For example: In the Roman Republic, an imbalance between elites, the army, and the working class led to civil wars and the fall of the Republic. 3. Emergent Properties: Freedom, Cooperation, and Innovation Certain societal characteristics, like freedom or economic prosperity, are "emergent properties," meaning they result from the balance and interaction of these nodes. When nodes cooperate—such as a fair government, an empowered workforce, and a vibrant intellectual community—you get positive outcomes like innovation and freedom. If they compete destructively, society may face conflict, inequality, or authoritarianism. 4. Practical Application The CAMS framework can be used to analyze real-world events. For instance, if you see protests in a country, CAMS would prompt you to ask: which node is out of balance? Is it a conflict between property owners and the proletariat? Overall, the CAMS framework helps break down complex societal functions into manageable pieces, offering insight into how societies succeed, adapt, or fail. The model is available via a custom GPT implementation here. https://lnkd.in/guppPSs7 Comments and Feedback welcome.

Enjoyed reading this interview with Stuart Cheetham on addressing the current disconnect between tech and lenders in the UK mortgage sector. The argument re "automating cases where we do have the confidence that the risk appetite has been met" is applicable across many areas of retail financial services but sadly still WIP for many. #fintech #UKmortgages
