I was watching Jared Diamond 2003 presentation of the collapse of a society. There is two glimpse of thing that divert my attention from the presentation. First when he mention some of the society that last thousand of years and didn't collapse he mention java. And then when he sample the society that going to collapse he mention Indonesia.
And another thing, he mention that if an elite decisions often benefits them selves in the short term and the group in the long term. Especially when they able to shelter them selves from the effect. That is definitely one of the big factor that contribute to the Collapse of A Society. I've seen that symptoms too many times in my country but didn't know how counter it.
Oh well, people get what they deserves.
