In case of the (State-)System, self-fulfilling prophecies of various ‘actors’ (e.g. societies and decisionmakers of states) – their mutual expectations – interact and shape each other; it is a process […]
From a Directed to a Centrifugal Force
The upscaling of the (State-)System from a core/non-core to a globalized State-System, respectively regulated by the 1st and 2nd (global) FTA, was accompanied by a dramatic shift in the force […]
Hij voorspelt de volgende wereldoorlog, gebaseerd op natuurkundige theorieën
Als marinier maakte Ingo Piepers van dichtbij oorlog mee. Nu voorspelt hij in een dik boek de komende wereldoorlog, door natuurkundige theorieën over chaos op de geschiedenis toe te passen. […]
The System
The System consist of interacting communities and societies, and of their interactions with their respective environments on which they also depend. State-structures represent and regulate societies in the State-System and […]
Optimization between Order and Disorder and the Role of Chaotic Dynamics
Life – including the sustainment of a dissipative structure as the FTS – requires an intermediary level of entropy: Not too much entropy – too much disorder – and not […]
Attack Tolerance of Networks
Networks differ in their attack and error tolerance. Scale-free networks have a typical ‘error and attack tolerance’ (1), which is related to the distribution of nodes with a certain degree […]
Social Entropy
Entropy in social systems appears – manifests itself – as tensions. Entropy in social systems appears – manifests itself – as tensions. Tensions – ‘social entropy’ – are generated by […]
On the Thermodynamics of War and Social Evolution
Global4cast has published a new study with the title “On the Thermodynamics of war and Social Evolution“, which provides the scientific explanation for patterns in war dynamics that were discussed […]
