"What's the motivation of this paper? We've seen in most of these locations that there was an #emergence of some form of hierarchical #government [correlated with] a monopoly of #violence and increased #inequality [and] most people lost."

Citing work led by SFI's Tim Kohler in 2017 showing the increase in #inequality (as measured by #GINIcoefficient) as society evolves greater political #scale and more complex/abstract means of production:
- Over the past few years, the #government has proposed to #amend several #environmental #laws and create entirely #new ones.
- The government has also proposed very large #industrial and #developmental projects which would effectively ruin the environment of the areas. [1/10]

THOUGHT OF THE DAY. It’s interesting to note that the lebanese -#sectarian- system that shaped the last 30 years and beyond (partially in the civil war), was only made possible because of the constant rivalry of main #christian leaders. THREAD 1/n
Just imagine for one second what would it have been like if Christian leaders (similarly to Chia or Sunni to some extent) had one main voice of representation. This would have lead to a 3-presidential-fight in a modern day #GameofThrones. 2/n
The current Mafia&Militia model wld have never been made possible. Imagining that LB people are actual #tribes. Depending on the positioning of Christians whether with or against it, wld generate a majority to Teheran’s axis or a clear blockade to it (2 vs 1 configuration). 3/n
