Q&@
SAPIENS KNOW
THESE COOPERATIVE TRICKS WELL!
THEY sometimes form power hierarchies
similar to those of common chimpanzees,
whereas on other occasions they cement social bonds with sex just like bonobos.
Yet personal acquaintance - whether it involves fighting or copulating - cannot form
the basis for large-scale cooperation. You cannot settle the Greek debt crisis by inviting
Greek politicians & German to either a fist fight or an orgy. Research indicates that Sapiens
just can't have intimate relations (whether hostile or amorous) with more than 150 individuals.
Whatever enables humans to organise mass-cooperation networks, it isn't intimate relations? Which
is bad news for psychologists, sociologists, economists & others who try to decipher human society through
laboratory experiments. For both organisational & financial reasons, the vast majority of experiments
are conducted either on individuals or on small groups of participants. Yet it is risky to extrapolate
from small-group behaviour to the dynamics of mass societies. A nation of 100 million people
functions in a fundamental different way to a band
of a hundred individuals.
