Here we describe one of the two dimensions of the foprop frame: zones of reach. The zones are oriented to the way in which ripples of consequence and outcome spread themselves. For sufficient complexity and sufficient simplicity, four zones are distinguished.
Each zone calls upon a particular quality, origin or 'grain' of attention, and can be expected to influence practice either more widely or more narrowly, more diffusely (in wider ripples) or with greater fine-grain effect, resonance and animation.
For activist practice to be really deep and richly engaged and joined-up, actions need to be self-consciously and skilfully conducted in all four ¿zones, in parallel and in mutual relationship. The nature of skill, perception and capacity in each zone is distinctive, and it can be patchy. An aim in foprop is to help balance-up across the zones, and to join-up and mobilise different kinds of engagement and commitment, leading to a different scope and 'durèe' in the consequences of actions.
Four zones of proximity and reach form the vertical dimension of the foprop weave. The foprop weave - A container
The four zones of reach are: Zone ¿1 - In-here (care work) Zone ¿2 - Here (subsistence work) Zone ¿3 - We (formación work) Zone ¿4 - Region (stewarding work) > The symbol ¿ is pronounced 'zone'
