# kaal:claim:3808852-001

**Claim.** The six types of decentralization are not independent: each is subject to its own iterative process and affects the others through feedback effects, so proliferation in one type progressively changes the others.

**Type.** mechanism  **Support.** argued

**Holds when.**

- applies across decentralization of science, technology, organization, markets, government, and society

**Source quote.**

> These types of decentralization, among others, are each subject to iterative decentralization processes and affect each other by way of feedback effects. As one type proliferates, the other types are slowly but increasingly affected, leading to changes that, in turn, affect each other.
