Implicate Nine Clans
Version 1.0.0 · Updated 2026-07-30
CORE DEFINITION
One person rebels, the entire family is wiped out. The logic of a 'yang strategy': unlimited joint liability. It raises the cost of an individual's default to the level of 'genetic extinction,' forcing family members to supervise each other.
SCAFFOLDING EFFECT
Reduce cognitive load
Bet-on agreements / joint guarantees. In investment or lending, require founders and key executives to sign 'unlimited joint liability' agreements, binding their personal fortunes and lives to the company to ensure they won't easily run away.
Anchor fast decisions
An ancient collective punishment where a serious crime by one person implicates relatives, used as deterrence and risk control. It reveals how 'joint liability' amplifies the externality of punishment.
