Sociological Safety Domain: Theoretical Grounding

Image: FLUX-pro enhanced with PlaygroundUpscaler

The idea of extruding “sociological safety” out of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs may seem a stretch. For its “fit” into a Safety EcoSystem, we’ll consider two important matters.

First, does it fit naturally with the way others, including sociologists, see the world?

Second, does it make intuitive sense as a pragmatic frame for nonscientists for application as an approach to problems at operational levels?

So, yes, let’s take a moment to give it a quick sanity check, both intradisciplinary and inter- or transdisciplinary.

Intradisciplinary Form

The camel of neuroscience has poked its nose in a good many tents over the past two decades. For the better part of the 20th Century, neuroscience, or neural science, was a tool of the medical and psychological communities. The broad focus was on how the nervous system develops, its structure and function, both norms and pathologies as they related to the anatomical functions of the brain and the rest of human neurological systems.
