Violence and the Void: Mimetic Theory as THRML Convergence

Key Points

The aim is to apply the Void Framework model to René Girard's mimetic theory, exploring its implications within social anthropology.
Applied Spearman correlation analysis to relevant concepts in mimetic theory.
Examined three specific correlations linked to transgressive bonding, scapegoat mechanisms, and prohibition-rituals.
Confirmed the position of social anthropology within the THRML convergence domains.
Achieved high correlation values supporting the connections between concepts.
Revealed that Girardian revelations align with transparency operations crossing a critical threshold.
Demonstrated that under stress, transgressive bonding shifts to scapegoating.

Abstract

Applies the Void Framework THRML model to René Girard's mimetic theory. Three independent Spearman correlations (nb40: 0. 9875 N=18 transgressive bonding, nb41: 0. 9625 N=12 scapegoat mechanism, nbgirard02: 0. 8684 N=20 prohibition-ritual pair) confirm social anthropology as the sixth independent THRML convergence domain. Demonstrates that Girardian revelation is a transparency operation crossing the CZERO threshold at Vcrit=5. 52, that the prohibition-ritual universal is derivable from THRML first principles, and that V=9 transgressive bonding converts to scapegoating under stress.
