IdeologicalComponent - Multi-dimensional ideological state (George Jackson Model).

IdeologicalComponent represents the ideological state of an entity in the Babylon simulation using the George Jackson Model of consciousness:

class_consciousness: Relationship to Capital [0=False, 1=Revolutionary]
national_identity: Relationship to State [0=Internationalist, 1=Fascist]
agitation: Raw political energy accumulated from wage crises [0, inf)

The key insight: “Fascism is the defensive form of capitalism.” - Agitation + Solidarity -> Class Consciousness (Revolutionary Path) - Agitation + No Solidarity -> National Identity (Fascist Path)

This component is essential for modeling consciousness drift and political transformation in the simulation.

Multi-dimensional ideological state (George Jackson Model).

class babylon.models.components.ideological.IdeologicalComponent(**data)[source]

Bases: BaseModel

Multi-dimensional ideological state (George Jackson Model).

Tracks the ideological state of an entity using three axes: - Relationship to Capital (class consciousness) - Relationship to State/Tribe (national identity) - Accumulated political energy (agitation)

The bifurcation mechanism: - When wages fall, agitation accumulates - If solidarity edges exist: agitation routes to class_consciousness - If no solidarity edges: agitation routes to national_identity

All values use constrained floats for automatic validation: - class_consciousness: [0, 1] (0=False Consciousness, 1=Revolutionary) - national_identity: [0, 1] (0=Internationalist, 1=Fascist) - agitation: [0, inf) (no upper bound - accumulates during crises)

This component is immutable (frozen) to ensure state integrity.

Parameters:

class_consciousness (Annotated[float, Ge(ge=0.0), Le(le=1.0)])
national_identity (Annotated[float, Ge(ge=0.0), Le(le=1.0)])
agitation (Annotated[float, Ge(ge=0)])

class_consciousness: Relationship to Capital [0=False, 1=Revolutionary] (default: 0.0)

national_identity: Relationship to State [0=Internationalist, 1=Fascist] (default: 0.5)

agitation: Raw political energy from wage crises [0, inf) (default: 0.0)

model_config: ClassVar[ConfigDict] = {'frozen': True}: Configuration for the model, should be a dictionary conforming to [ConfigDict][pydantic.config.ConfigDict].

class_consciousness: float

national_identity: float

agitation: float

property component_type: str

Return the component type identifier.

Returns:: The string ‘ideological’ identifying this component type.
