FCP has the potential to create environments that “program” children’s minds to develop intrinsic conflict resolution skills as adults by shaping their early neural pathways, emotional regulation, and social conditioning in a way that makes cooperative, integrative conflict resolution their default state. I. How FCP Rewires Conflict Processing from Childhood Neuroscience shows that early relationalContinue reading “How FCP Rewires Conflict Processing from Childhood”

Integrating Theories for a Unified Understanding of Relational Systems – How FCP and MIT Bridge Psychology, Sociology, and Systems Theory
Integrating Theories for a Unified Understanding of Relational Systems – How FCP and MIT Bridge Psychology, Sociology, and Systems Theory 🚀 How do we integrate all of human knowledge into a framework that actually works? The Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) and Mirror Integration Theory (MIT) aren’t just theories; they are meta-frameworks designed to unify insightsContinue reading “Integrating Theories for a Unified Understanding of Relational Systems – How FCP and MIT Bridge Psychology, Sociology, and Systems Theory”
Reframing Addiction Recovery: A Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Critique of Social Coercion and Systemic Barriers
Reframing Addiction Recovery: A Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Critique of Social Coercion and Systemic Barriers The Fractal of Resentment: How Withholding Forgiveness Traps Us in the Past When we refuse to forgive, we often believe we are protecting ourselves—setting boundaries, demanding accountability, or ensuring justice. But in reality, resentment is rarely about the other person;Continue reading “Reframing Addiction Recovery: A Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Critique of Social Coercion and Systemic Barriers”
Gaia-Inspired Revolution: Using FCP & MIT to Guide Revolutionary Action
Imagine you’re a fish in a fish tank. You can swim around and make choices, but if the water is dirty, you’re going to get sick no matter what you do. Cartesian dualism is like saying, “It’s your fault you’re sick, just swim better,” instead of realizing the whole tank needs to be cleaned. InContinue reading “Gaia-Inspired Revolution: Using FCP & MIT to Guide Revolutionary Action”
Autistic Cognition as a Natural Resistance to Cartesian Dualism: A Functional Conflict Perspective Approach
Autistic Cognition as a Natural Resistance to Cartesian Dualism: A Functional Conflict Perspective Approach Abstract René Descartes’ mind-body dualism established the foundation for hierarchical thought in Western civilization, reinforcing the separation of mind from body, rationality from emotion, and elites from the masses. This framework permeates governance, education, and social organization, producing top-down, control-based structuresContinue reading “Autistic Cognition as a Natural Resistance to Cartesian Dualism: A Functional Conflict Perspective Approach”
From Descartes to the Double Empathy Problem: How Dualism Shaped the Pathologization of Neurodivergence
From Descartes to the Double Empathy Problem: For centuries, Western psychology has assumed a normative model of social cognition, defining communication and empathy through neurotypical standards. This framework has pathologized neurodivergent relational modes, positioning autistic communication styles as deficits rather than valid, alternative ways of engaging with the world. But where did this bias originate?Continue reading “From Descartes to the Double Empathy Problem: How Dualism Shaped the Pathologization of Neurodivergence”
