range: BFO_0000015
created: 2022-12-30T21:32:27-05:00
creator: https://cubrc.org
definition: A relation between an entity and some process where the entity has an interest in that process.
editorial note: This term is meant to be weakly normative. The only sense in which the process is of positive normative value is that it's prescribed by the entity, or historically of evolutionary benefit to the entity's ancestors, or facilitates a process the entity has an interest in for the prior two reasons. The process an entity has an interest could in many or all ways be harmful to the entity.
scope note: There are four conditions in which an entity has an interest in some process. 1) Biological Condition: If a part (including improper part) of an organism has a function, then that organism has an interest in the realization of that function. 2) Artifactual Condition: If a part (including improper part) of an artifact has a function, then some agent or group of agents, at some time, has an interest in the realization of that function. 3) Prescription Condition: If an agent or group of agents has a plan, then it has an interest in the realization of all the processes and process-combinations prescribed by that plan. 4) Facilitation Condition: If (a) x has an interest in the realization of a disposition y, and (b) the realization of a disposition z facilitates the realization of disposition y, then (c) x has an interest in the realization of disposition z, and by 'facilitates' we mean that the occurrence of a process w, which realizes realization of z is either (1) required for y, to realize or (2) would contribute positively to the grade of, y's realization.

creator: https://cubrc.org
definition: A Government Domain that is associated with certain distinct political, ethnic, or cultural characteristics, and which delimits a Government that has legitimate authority over a Populace.
editorial note: 'Country' is an unclear term. Does it refer to the people, the government, the site, or the material in the site? Furthermore, what is properly referred to as a 'Country' is highly dependent on the classification practices of the international community. For example: The United Kingdom is a sovereign country that has Wales, a non-sovereign Country, as a member. Vatican City is a sovereign country that is landlocked by a city: Rome, Italy. Puerto Rico is not a country (it's a territory) but has a government, a distinct culture, and so on. Thus, here we do not define 'Country' but instead define 'Domain of a Country'.

Authority Role
type: Class
subclass of: BFO_0000023
definition: A Role that is realized by Processes which create, modify, transfer, or eliminate Process Regulations or other Authority Roles, and inheres in an Agent in virtue of collective acceptance of that Agent's ability to issue binding directives.
scope note: Authority Roles are externally grounded in a social group's collective acceptance of the binding force of the agent's directives. This acceptance can be direct or indirect (e.g., by accepting a procedure for deputizing authority). Such collective acceptance need not be explicit or cognized; rather, collective acceptance can be expressed in the dispositions and attitudes of people toward that agent's directives. In many cases, the directives issued by Authority Roles are backed by threats of punishment or sanction for failure to comply, but the issuing of a directive plus a threat is not sufficient for authority. Rather, an agent's authority must be accepted either directly or indirectly through the acceptance of a procedure for bestowing authority (e.g., elections).

Government
type: Class
subclass of: Organization
subclass of: Restriction
  on property: is delimited by
  some values from: Delimiting Domain
creator: https://cubrc.org
definition: An Organization that is the highest legitimate authority delimited by some Delimiting Domain and that exercises executive, legislative, or judicial authority in that Domain.
editorial note: Highest legitimate authority should not be confused with highest legitimate authority of a particular kind. For example, while the judicial branch of the United States government has the highest judicial authority in a Delimiting Domain, it is not the highest legitimate authority delimited by that domain. The combination of executive, judicial, and legislative branches is higher because it wields more legitimate authority than any branch on its own.
editorial note: Importantly, the definition states "highest legitimate authority delimited by some Delimiting Domain" and not "highest legitimate authority in some Delimiting Domain." The government of Wales is the highest legitimate authority delimited by some Delimiting Domain but it is not the highest legitimate authority in that domain, which would be the government of the United Kingdom.
