Flagship Explainer
Inclusionism is a philosophical and civilizational framework developed by James Felton Keith concerned with how differentiated agents generate value through interaction and how systems recognize, attribute, distribute, and legitimate that value.
Inclusionism is a Code of Equity: a framework for recognizing, attributing, distributing, and legitimizing value so that the agents and communities who contribute to its creation receive meaningful ownership, participation, influence, and self-determination in the systems they help create.
Developed by James Felton Keith.
Core Dynamic
Inclusionism is not merely socialism, democratic socialism, liberalism, capitalism, or progressivism. It is a broader account of how civilizations decide whose value counts.
It asks whether value generated through interaction is returned as meaningful agency to the contributors who help create it.
It tests whether recognition, attribution, ownership, governance, and belonging are fair enough to make a system legitimate.
