18-CHAPTER WORKING-PAPER CURRICULUM

Learn the research program in a deliberate sequence.

The course moves from the missing system-welfare coordinate to measurement, auditable decision records, institutional failure, and repair. Each chapter has its own direct-reading page with exercises, source links, notes, and references.

CHAPTERS 1–7
Reviewed public teaching editions with the current source and numerical framework.
CHAPTERS 8–18
Public working text under continued editorial, citation, and study-guide review.
RESEARCH STATUS
Every chapter teaches working-paper research. “Reviewed teaching edition” describes internal author review and public-source checking; it does not imply journal peer review. Start with Chapter 1, inspect the formal proof separately, and use Objections and Defenses as the adversarial companion.
CHAPTERS 14

Foundations

The missing coordinate, outcome taxonomy, and formal proof boundary.
CHAPTERS 57

Measurement and action

System-welfare measurement, group decisions, and the Conflictoring protocol.
CHAPTERS 812

Domain applications, Decision Accounting, coalition structure, and fiscal capture.
CHAPTERS 1318

Substitution, disclosure, finite coalitions, data, game change, and multi-audience review.
