Governed Updating

Definition

Learning that occurs through explicit governance mechanisms rather than informal adaptation. Governed updating specifies who has authority to update what, through what process, with what accountability. Without governed updating, change happens chaotically or not at all.

Example

Constitutional amendment procedures are governed updating for legal systems. Compare to informal norm evolution which lacks governance—it happens, but unpredictably and without accountability.
