Code of Equity

Definition

A framework for recognizing, attributing, distributing, and legitimizing value generated through interaction.


Historical Origin

Inclusionism originally described itself as a "Code of Equity" in contrast to traditional discussions of a "Code of Ethics."


Inclusionist Perspective

Where ethics often asks:

"What is right?"

A Code of Equity asks:

"How should value be recognized and distributed?"


Core Principle

Equity is the tangible evidence that participation has been recognized.


Inclusionist Perspective

As civilizations improve their understanding of value creation, they should improve their ability to:

  • recognize contribution

  • attribute participation

  • distribute value

  • expand agency

  • strengthen belonging


Relationships


Core Question

How can systems become increasingly accurate in recognizing and distributing value?
