The Tie, Paradigm Of Evolution And Inertia Of Human Habit, Conservatism.

[Dov Henis]

Would be interesting to share thoughts and attitudes re the subject, to learn-survey our attitudes re the phenomenon of human conservatism, by aid of a specific example of a relevant paradigm.

- I added the New Scientist note just to remind us of the obvious

matter that conservatism affects us all.

 

- The Tie is functionally useless.

 

- It has originated as a vanity-folly of few persons and evolved

into a widely spread habit.

 

- The habit was developed with economic and with vain social

interests.

 

- The evolved habit has turned into a socially-mandated-convention,

followed by formal government and social dictation.

 

- I think that this process is an example of evolution of a human

cultural trait, of conservatism...
