Civitology and Its Sub-Sciences

A Complete Map of Streams, Purposes, and Alignment to Principles

What makes a stream “Civitological”?

A science stream belongs inside Civitology when it:

1. extends civilisation’s safe time-horizon,

2. protects nature and animals as co-foundational,

3. embeds integrity and accountability into power and markets,

4. includes reversibility and renewal cycles to counter entropy, and

5. is measurable through the Civilisational Longevity Index (CLI) and the Longevity Contribution Score (LCS), with Utility vs Collective Danger as the gating test for major actions/innovations.

Below, each stream includes: What it is (subset definition), How it serves Civitology (principle alignment), and What it measures (typical CLI/LCS hooks).

1) Civitological Metascience

What it is: The “science of the sciences” inside Civitology. It evaluates whether policies, technologies, and institutional designs actually extend civilisation’s safe time-horizon rather than merely sounding virtuous.

Fundamentals: Pre-registration of hypotheses for civic reforms; causal identification (DiD, synthetic controls); longitudinal tracking of CLI deltas; external replication; adversarial audits to catch p-hacking or index gaming; open protocols for evidence hierarchies (what counts as longevity-adding). Builds common data schemas so ecology, justice, economy, and tech labs compose results.

Civitology alignment: Puts longevity as the dependent variable; embeds integrity-by-design via open methods and audits; enforces reversibility by requiring rollback plans during trials; uses CLI/LCS as outcome anchors; applies the Utility vs Collective Danger Test (U-v-CD) to gate major deployments. Metascience prevents well-intentioned harms, converts “good ideas” into tested operating knowledge, and makes budgets accountable to measured survival gains.

2) Civilisational Entropy & Renewal Science

What it is: Quantifies institutional decay (backlogs, corruption drift, maintenance debt) and engineers planned renewal cycles that reset systems before failure.

Fundamentals: Entropy indicators (queue half-lives, error rates, skill atrophy); renewal protocols (term rotation, maintenance windows, refactoring charters); queueing theory and reliability engineering; controlled “rest” periods for courts, grids, ecosystems; simulation of decay vs. service loss trade-offs.

Civitology alignment: Systemic rest is how civilisation breathes: renewal lowers entropy, extends asset life, and preserves trust. Ecological floors are honored by fallowing and habitat recovery cycles. Integrity-by-design emerges from routine audits and rotation that reduce capture. Reversibility is literal—planned downtime to repair. Success is measured in backlog half-life, uptime stability, and positive contributions to CLI justice speed, infrastructure resilience, and ecology indicators.

3) Ethics-by-Design Systems Engineering

What it is: Turns values (human/animal dignity, ecological limits, privacy) into hard technical specs, checklists, and compliance tests that travel with every project.

Fundamentals: Requirements engineering; threat and harm modeling; consent flows; differential privacy; cruelty-free and non-lethal design options; ecological floor constraints as non-negotiable system limits; compliance automation; pre-deployment hazard analyses; continuous ethics telemetry.

Civitology alignment: Hard-codes empathy and floors into systems so expediency cannot erode survival. Reversibility is made a spec (kill-switches, rollback plans). Integrity lives in machine-readable accountability trails. U-v-CD is embedded as an approval gate. LCS adds a score penalty for ethics debt; CLI registers fewer rights violations and better institutional trust. Ethics-by-design prevents small compromises from snowballing into civilisational risk.

4) Longevity Economics & Finance

Fundamentals: Natural-capital accounting; externality internalisation; productivity under ecological ceilings; URPC stability models; RPX market integrity; distributional stress tests; fiscal rules that weight LCS in budgeting and procurement.
Civitology alignment: Aligns incentives so regeneration beats depletion. Ecological floors become budget constraints; animal/nature co-survival gets financed. Integrity enters through transparent costings and anti-gaming audits. Reversibility is managed via staged investment and sunset/renewal clauses. CLI improves on energy intensity, inequality, and ecology; U-v-CD filters out growth that shortens the future.
