A Guy Predicted That Society Would Devolve Into Violence and Chaos in 2020I got this from Tim Pool. I don't know what "cliodynamic" means. I assume it's a variety of psychohistory, charting great trends that come in cycles. VICE: Can you humor me and explain your cliodynamic theory of violence in layman's terms? Um, rather nailed that, huh? [VICE:] In your view, what causes these upheavals? Years ago I would have said that sounds like commie bullshit but of course I know different now. Andrew Stuttaford just wrote about this.*
Yup, psychohistory. Nailed it. Whether one agrees with Turchin's math or the shadow of historical determinism that wafts through it, much of what he has to say also makes, intuitively, a great deal of sense. These "elites" -- um, would-be elites, let's say -- are upset that people who didn't spend $300,000 on a worthless college degree are making more than they are.
I don't know if it's true that the academy has seen wages fall. I'm quite sure that's not true, unless there's a caste system in the academy in which most workers are kept from full-time positions and are paid menial wages while a select few (incluing all the administrators, of course) make hundreds of thousands per year. * Strangely, I just blundered across the Andrew Stuttaford article without searching for it. I was checking National Review for the first time in months to see if they were actually engaging with the current crisis, or avoiding it like cowards. (Answer: They're engaging but in as cautious and bloodless a way as possible.) So I just came across a random Peter Turchin mention minutes after hearing of him for the first time. The Baader-Meinhof phenomenon strikes again. | Recent Comments
