The Polarity Model is a structural framework for understanding how agents, relationships, and systems function across scales — from individual psychology to civilizational dynamics. The model identifies through-lines that recur at every scale: the yin/yang principle of mutual constitution, coupling, fractality, Will-Consent integrity conditions for genuine agency, and the Observer function as constitutive of selfhood. The primary diagnostic is a three-state output axis — generative, sterile, cancerous — applied uniformly at every layer of analysis. The model is derived in five steps (atom, substrate, inner landscape, dyadic, n-adic/systemic) and applied to three civilizational-scale stress-tests: the human intelligence-AI relationship, the Russia-Ukraine-EU conflict, and the US-Israel-Iran-Palestine dynamic.
