  • ( I mean, if you disagree with me, ask a question but don’t come at me all full

    ( I mean, if you disagree with me, ask a question but don’t come at me all full of sound and fury signifying nothing. I tend to think things because of lots of cross referenced data. Some times I’m defining, some times I’m describing, some times I’m experimenting, sometimes I’m fostering conversation, and some times I’m just creating a bit of havoc. But … jeez, please don’t just give me some mises institute, or marxists idiocy. I don’t actually like calling people stupid.)

  • THE RUSSIAN SOCIODEMOGRAPHIC CYCLE Nefedov, Turchin and Malkov: sociodemographic

    THE RUSSIAN SOCIODEMOGRAPHIC CYCLE

    Nefedov, Turchin and Malkov: sociodemographic cycles

    The basic logic of these models is as follows:

    1) After the population reaches the ceiling of the carrying capacity of land, its growth rate declines toward near-zero values.

    2) The system experiences significant stress with decline in the living standards of the common population, increasing the severity of famines, growing rebellions etc.

    3) As has been shown by Nefedov, most complex agrarian systems had considerable reserves for stability, however, within 50–150 years these reserves were usually exhausted and the system experienced a demographic collapse (a Malthusian catastrophe), when increasingly severe famines, epidemics, increasing internal warfare and other disasters led to a considerable decline of population.

    4) As a result of this collapse, free resources became available, per capita production and consumption considerably increased, the population growth resumed and a new sociodemographic cycle started.

  • Promiscuity and Markets

    PROMISCUITY AND MARKETS (important post) Promiscuity breaks the compromise between male and female reproductive strategies and undermines the necessity of the family as the first organization (production of generations), in the hierarchy of cooperative organizations. The French and Italians solve the problem through the sacredness of the family and ‘graceful philandering’ by both genders. Whether you adopt the zero tolerance of the anglos or the high tolerance of the french, is a choice of higher or lower stress. When we think of ourselves as equal rather than opposites that are compatible, and adopt individualism rather than compromise, we achieve in the intergenerational social order, what we achieve in the socialist economy: an inability to calculate and cooperate, and a destruction of the intergenerational means of production.

    When I think of ‘what should I do’, I think of Zeus, Alexander, Caesar, Hannibal, Aurelius, Aristotle, The Henry’s, Jefferson, Napoleon, and Hayek. I don’t know my god’s name. I don’t need to. In fact, having name is trivializing.

    For me he is “Father”.

    Damn, but we are in fact going to see the perfect economic, demographic, political and military storm.
