The approach to modeling in ReLocalize Creativity is to reveal rich perspectives and possibilities (leverage points) in particular systems--NOT to create generalized models.
Our generalizations will be published as Patterns.
This is a set of models that we have found very useful for making sense of complex social and technical systems.
Text is pretty small so you will need to zoom in the webpage with (command +). In the future I will break these up so text is larger.
We will be introducing each of these in depth. Right now the Causal Models set has content. Click on the text to open related pages.
See enlarged view **here .** I will attempt to add hyperlinks on this page--later.

If you choose to explore the models illustrated and explained below, please consider this: beauty is the basis for using all the models, including Beauty, Good, Truth, Economy. That is why I put it at the top along with the most general model of humans taking action together: Social Action Tetrahedron. All the models below these two must be informed by these or they will lead to no good.
Everything is clickable in the diagram.

# Sequence matters. A lot.
I am always talking about social systems and artifacts that support people in social systems. I am always talking about planet earth. I am always talking about the present in the context of a future--at least a seven generation future for people on planet earth organized locally in order to take care of ourselves and to avoid hurting other selves.
Consider starting with DSRP.
