At some places and times, the " group " is really rational and keeps control. There seem to be two paradigms: ative or Aggressive. The Aggressive societies seek power by conquering and control, the ative societies work together. I heard one person talk about this in terms of Bonobos and Chimpanzees: the Bonobos being more cooperative and socially supportive, the Chimps being more heirarchical and conquering. -- Heidi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
