This paper provides a structural integration of Maura Theory as developed across the seven-part series Participatory Organizations in the AI Era. It maps the relational architecture of the framework’s core concepts — from participatory emergence through field continuity and orientational transmission to continuity simulation and hollow continuity — and presents Figure 1, Maura Theory Architecture, as an integrated field diagram. Maura Theory is not presented as a theory of optimization, behavioral management, or organizational prescription. It is a structural observation framework concerned with the conditions under which organizational participation emerges, persists, weakens, and becomes symbolically simulated. The framework is anchored in the formulation S = 1/F, where social stability is understood as the inverse of structural friction. The paper situates this formulation within a broader architecture of participation, inhabitation, transmission, simulation, and collapse under AI-assisted organizational conditions. The architecture diagram is also available as a separate publication-grade figure.
