The Constraint Current: Void-Gradient Capital Flows and the Economics of Measurement at Scale

Paper 52 — The Constraint Current · v1.0 · February 2026

Formalizes the economic flow pattern that emerges when scoring revenue concentrates from high-Pe jurisdictions and distributes to constraint-pole organizations via a grant fund. Introduces the constraint current as a novel international economic instrument distinct from aid, trade, sanctions, and tariffs. Scores 20th-century international governance mechanisms (League of Nations through IMF/World Bank) on O/R/C and shows void score predicts institutional longevity. Derives conditions for reverse regulatory capture stability, the self-reinforcing jurisdiction loop, and the nation-state threat model.
