Vertical links in the model
Horizontal connections in the energy model reflect the sequence of functions triggering. And what is the role of vertical links? Please note that we are talking about the audit, that is, restraining and reducing links. Vertical connection, in fact, holds the superstructure above the foundation, the external over internal. It can be compared with the trophic (food) link in the biocenosis. Through this connection, energy flows from the bottom up in the ecological pyramid. So in nature, wolves, feeding on hares, restrain their growth. Thus, the higher function in the sociotype model, firstly, controls the lower one, not allowing it to go beyond certain limits and, secondly, it “feeds” at the expense of the lower one.
