The development of society and the evolution of life
The development of society and the development of life have much in common. Many laws of evolution are valid in both cases. But also fundamental differences. Nature has a lot to learn, since the most advanced mechanisms on the planet are biological systems. But living systems also have disadvantages, the main one is a complex of low speed and limited energy. A living system cannot smelt metals, but primitive technology can.
Even the social system does not always evolve, sometimes there are drastic changes. It is possible that the evolution of a social system is generally limited in time, after which nothing can be achieved with the help of evolution.
But the increase in the complexity of the social system and the increase in the complexity of the biological system obey the same laws. Neither bacteria nor archaea nor viruses are adapted to create a multicellular organism, their maximum is bacterial films. But a complex based on archaea with a nucleus from a virus and energy from a bacterium was able to form the most complex multicellular organisms with many internal control complexes. All higher forms of life are based on eukaryotes, not bacteria or archaea.
With the economy, the situation is similar for many, different and warring socio-economic complexes have different efficiency in different conditions. Some system is more effective in some conditions and inefficient in others. The other system behaves in the opposite way. So it is possible that the development of the economic system will follow the path of creating the most complex complexes from elements of simpler systems.
