Ideju za tamu sam dobio iz ovog članka: Famed Social Sciences Author Jared Diamond Predicts 49 Percent Chance of Civilization Collapse
evo i par citata:
Jared Diamond is no doom-and-gloomer; he's a Pulitzer Prize winning author of thoughtful, carefully researched books about the rise and fall of societies.
Rather than limiting his perspective to immediate, short-term actions and consequences (as most national leaders and corporations do - i ne samo oni!), Diamond intelligently examines the long-term, interdependent factors that lead to any society's success or failure.
What Diamond and I both agree on is that complex civilizations are quite fragile, and short-terming thinking can easily doom a society or civilization to irreversible collapse.
Other causes of collapse include man-made accelerations of environmental change; the classic example being the rampant deforestation of Easter Island by its inhabitants (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter...).
It is the Easter Island example that perhaps most closely resembles the short-sightedness of modern western civilization. At the expense of future generations, today's CEOs, bankers and politicians are destroying our future in so many ways (financial, chemical, environmental, plundering of fossil fuels, etc.) that it is a challenge to imagine a scenario where western civilization even survives in its current form.

baš me zanima da li sam pogodio
