# Feedback Loops **Domain:** Cybernetics / Control **Doc Type:** Concept Node **Maturity:** Evolving **Related:** [[Cybernetics]], [[Control Systems]], [[Recursive Self-Correction]], [[Human-Machine Symbiosis]] --- ## Definition A **feedback loop** returns information about a system's effects into the process that produces them, allowing regulation, learning or amplification. ## Corpus Context Negative feedback can stabilize a variable; positive feedback can accelerate deviation. In governance, the constitutional issue is whether those being regulated can observe and answer the loop that classifies them. ## See Also [[Cybernetics]], [[Control Systems]], [[Recursive Self-Correction]], [[Human-Machine Symbiosis]] ## Sources / Provenance - Developed through [[articles/Beyond the Sea|Beyond the Sea]] and the linked corpus.
