New theory on how #SocietalCollapse works just dropped. In his book "Goliath’s Curse: The History and Future of Societal Collapse”, @lukekemp describes how human societies repeatedly fall into the same trap: when resources become easily controlled and people can't easily leave, #DominanceHierarchies emerge. These systems (Kemp calls them '#Goliath') extract wealth from the many to benefit elites.

The twist? Throughout history, collapse often freed people from oppressive systems. But today we've built a global system where collapse would likely be catastrophic—#NuclearWeapons, #ClimateChange, and complex supply chains mean there's no going back to simpler times."

The #EU should jump at the opportunity to take over frozen and/or defunded #USAID programs. You'll never get the chance to have this much data on outcomes before making a funding decision in foreign aid!

Fund proven aid programs that the USA are dropping

The current US administration froze funding for all USAID programs, and is likely to discontinue most of them
