|Question=What is '''mutual authority delegation'''? How should it be ''defined''?
|Topic Type=Definitional
|Description=Mutual The notion of mutual authority delegation is defined as the mutual acknowledgement between meant to refer to cases when two separate communities A and B as experts of their own respective fields, and so accepts what agents delegate authority to each other has accepted within their own disciplineover different questions.[[CiteRef::Overgaard and Loiselle (2016)]] Identifying Situations like this relationship between two smaller scientific communities can allow obtain regularly in the elucidation process of overarching scientific communities and their mosaicschange. This interaction is by no means trivialThus, as it seems to explain the existence a proper definition of and the coherence between sub-communities, and how different scientific communities have developed off each other’s work. An example of mutual authority delegation term is the relationship between physicists and biologists. Physicists accept that biologists are the experts in the field of life sciences, and likewise, biologists accept that physicists are the experts in physical sciences.[[CiteRef::Overgaard and Loiselle (2016)]] This ensures that there won’t be contradictory theories between their mosaicsscientonomic importance.

|Prehistory=Émile Durkheim, in his The Division of Labour in Society (1893), introduced the concepts of mechanical and organic solidarity in a society. On one hand, mechanical solidarity describes a society where all members function in an identical manner. On the contrary, organic solidarity describes a society where specialized sub-communities have been formed to maximize social harmony and work together towards a common goal[[CiteRef::Carls (2016)]]. Authority delegation is much like the latter, where specialized communities have a mutualistic relationship. Another example can be found in cognitive science. Specialized parts within a system working together to achieve a specific output in a cognitive theory called distributed cognition. Similar concepts can be found in many other disciplines.
|History=Mutual authority delegation was officially accepted by the scientonomic community in September 2016, after reviewing the article published in Scientonomy by Nicholas Overgaard and Mirka Loiselle, titled Authority Delegation (2016).
