This has always intrigued me. Does the "survival of fittest" apply to human organizations ? .. Well looks pretty easy .. A better business organization survives .. right ? .. But what about other organizations .. Does a better nation has better chances of survival .. Does a better religion has better chances of survival .. and what is the measure of "Better" .. Is it survival ? .. who ever survives is better ..
And the next question is even more intriguing .. is there a competition between different type of human organizations .. is Nation competing with religion ?..or is there a competition between businesses and nations ? ..
Need to research more before I come back
Here I am back with next post ..
It surely does appear that Darwin is equally applicable on organizations as it is applicable to organisms .. But have we seen any extinction so far ? Religion is still around ..so are the races (and racism). Nations are there ans helping business organizations grow. But businesses are surely putting a pressure on nations to open up .. and Nations are surely putting pressure on religions to mellow down ..
So who will survive. Does any of these have a chance for long term or we are waiting for a new type of human organization to take shape .. something more stable ,, more efficient ..
Well ,, I am not much in history but how old is this concept of Nations ? .. may be 2000 years .. There were empires and dynasties .. and religion should be 500 years older than Nations .. before that there were races .. and when did the Family thing start ?
Looks like organizations .. as we see today is a pretty recent phenomenon .. May be we will see much larger and efficient organizations in future ..
But who will win the race . Man has surely won the race on all the fellow animals. Animals and insects are still there but ..they are just there .. Has Nation reached the same stage ? Is the Nation that org structure that is sheltering religions and races and families the way man is sheltering or shattering other animals ?
One property of an evolving and efficient organism that makes it so adaptable "Genetic evolution" is totally missing in Nations .. What I mean from Genetic Growth is that millions or billions of copies of the same structure are created and made to test each other .. and evolution happens thru better adaptation .. You have 150 odd nations .. This is not a number good enough to support evolution .. you need billions of them for" Genetic Evolution"
More next time
