babylon.engine.systems.contradiction_field

ContradictionFieldSystem — System #19 in materialist causality order.

Dialectical Field Topology (Feature 002): Computes named contradiction fields at every social-class node per tick. When a field_registry is wired (tests), fields come from its registered calculators; in production — where no registry is wired (the §5.3 dormant plumbing) — the fields are sourced from the Lawverian opposition layer instead (E0 repoint): the "exploitation" field is the mean fresh edge tension written by ContradictionSystem @18, and "atomization" is the global atomization opposition gap.

Classes

ContradictionFieldSystem()

Compute contradiction fields for all social-class nodes.
class babylon.engine.systems.contradiction_field.ContradictionFieldSystem[source]

Bases: SystemBase

Compute contradiction fields for all social-class nodes.

Execution Order: 19 (after the material-base and action systems)

For each social-class node, computes normalized contradiction field values — from the field_registry calculators when one is wired, else from the opposition layer (E0). Stores field values on nodes and maintains a rolling history window in persistent_data for temporal derivative computation by System #20.

name: ClassVar[str] = 'contradiction_field'
creates_value: ClassVar[bool] = False
step(graph, services, context)[source]

Compute contradiction fields for all social-class nodes.

Parameters:

  • graph (GraphProtocol) – Mutable graph (NetworkX or GraphProtocol).

  • services (ServicesProtocol) – ServicesProtocol with field_registry.

  • context (ContextType) – TickContext or dict with tick and persistent_data.

Return type:

None
