Why Industries Collapse

*** begin quote ***
Complex societies collapse because they are too inflexible to respond. From our vantage point, this can seem rather mystifying. Why didn’t they just re-tool and make things simpler? The answer Tainter gives is a simple one: When societies fail to respond with orderly downsizing, it isn’t because they don’t want to, it’s because they can’t.
*** end quote ***
Minimal size organizations are the answer.
It’s that “small, fast, and agile” meme again.
So maybe it’s the path to “salvation”.
