1 Comment on Why Civilisation Cannot Solve the Problems It Creates: Diary of a Madman

1 Comment on how complex institutions preserve failure

Institutions rarely fail because they cannot recognise problems. They fail because recognising problems is not the same as escaping the conditions that reproduce them.
