Selecting reasonable action to increase people's security implies more than a choice of tactics. Two different approaches require consideration. The system values compliance and rationally planned improvement in standard and practice. Judgments about the adequacy of response belong to professionals, with a variety of due process mechanisms to resolve conflicts. People choose to build intentional community or protective relationships with one another.
People value the struggle to live creatively in fidelity to the spirit of their commitments.
Judgments about quality of shared life depend on mutual trust and listening among those who share a commitment. Each approach offers something different, but the two mix poorly. Compliance undermines the spirit of commitment. Fidelity depends on trust and breaks down without personal identification and shared values. See pages 6 and 7 for depiction of these approaches.
