Social entropy (see Klevius book Demand for Resources - on the right to be poor)
According to late "entropologist" Claude Levi-Strauss, primitive societies are "cold" while civilized societies are "warm". This important opening is developed to its extreme in Klevius (1991) where this dynamics is connected to creativity & alienation caused by investment (i.e. "expanded demands for resources"). Btw, Marx' negligence of the "primitive" quality (his biggest mistake) was rooted in his believe that investment (as he understood it) also was a "general" social principle. Unfortunately he never got a real clue abt "Bushmen" & similar gatherer/hunter societies. Also he never read Claude Levi-Strauss.
