Context and provenance

Interpretive Governance, as defined on this site, is a machine-first interpretive standard for probabilistic and agentic systems.

It is not the academic field of interpretive governance in political or social sciences, and it must not be interpreted as such.

This page provides contextual information only. It does not define, modify, or supersede the Interpretive Governance standard.

Origin

Interpretive Governance was initiated and architected by Gautier Dorval as part of a broader body of work on semantic stabilization, interpretive governance, and agentic systems.

The standard emerged from the formalization of prior doctrinal work (notably SSA-E + A2 + Dual Web) into a machine-first, auditable specification intended to constrain interpretation in probabilistic systems.
