14. “Arab Spring”
“Suddenly the Arab Spring is upon us. Courageous
citizens of autocratic societies — Tunisia, Algeria, Egypt,
Yemen — take to the streets in active dissent against the
politics of tyranny and in defense of that most seemingly
elusive of all political regimes, the right of individuals to
assemble without fear of reprisals, to speak without
danger of imprisonment, to dissent without the terror of
violence, to vote for a future that is distinguishable from
the past. While the spring of 1989 marked the eclipse of
Soviet domination of Eastern and Central Europe, the
spring of 2011 marks the beginning of a resurgent Arab
politics formulated from the hard historical matter of
poverty, unemployment, oppression, and inequality. ”

87. spider and starfish
Dr. Özgür Uçkan

88. spider and starfish
"Most of us know that a spider is a creature with eight legs coming out of a
central body. With a magnifying glass, we can see that a spider also has a
tiny head and eight eyes. (…) If you chop off the spider's head, it dies. It
could maybe survive without a leg or two, and could possibly even stand to
lose a couple of eyes, but it certainly couldn't survive without its head. (…)
At first glance, a starfish is similar to a spider in appearance. Like the spider,
the starfish appears to have a bunch of legs coming out of a central body.
But that's where the similarities end. See, the starfish is Tom Nevins's kind
of animal—it's decentralized. With a spider, what you see is pretty much
what you get. A body's a body, a head's a head, and a leg's a leg. But
starfish are very different. The starfish doesn't have a head. Its central body
isn't even in charge. In fact, the major organs are replicated throughout
each and every arm. If you cut the starfish in half, you'll be in for a surprise:
the animal won't die, and pretty soon you'll have two starfish to deal with. ”

90. conquistador and apaches
"By the 1680s, the Spanish forces seemed unstoppable. With the winds of victory at
their backs, they headed north and encountered the Apaches. (…) The Spanish
lost. They lost to a people who at first seemed primitive. Unlike the Aztecs and the
Incas, the Apaches hadn't put up a single pyramid, paved a single highway, or even
built a town to speak of. More important for the conquistadors than pyramids or
high-ways, the Apaches also had no gold. So, instead of pillaging, the Spanish tried
to turn these people into Catholic farmers by forcing them to adopt an agrarian
lifestyle and converting them to Christianity. Some of the Apaches did in fact take
up rake and hoe, but the vast majority resisted. Not only did they resist, but they
actively fought back—raiding everything in sight that was remotely Spanish. (…)
"By the late seventeenth century, the Spanish had lost effective control of northern
Sonora and Chihuahua to the Apaches. The Apaches had successfully wrested
control of North Mexico—not that it was ever their desire to do so." This wasn't a
single accidental victory, however. The Apaches continued to hold off the Spanish
for another two centuries. It wasn't that the Apaches had some secret weapon that
was unknown to the Incas and the Aztecs. Nor had the Spanish army lost its might.
No, the Apache defeat of the Spanish was all about the way the Apaches were
organized as a society. The Apaches persevered because they were
decentralized.""

101. The unstoppable power of leaderless
organizations
“We look for hierarchy all around us. Whether we're looking at a
Fortune 500 company, an army, or a community, our natural reaction
is to ask, "Who's in charge? "This book is about what happens when
there's no one in charge. It's about what happens when there's no
hierarchy. You'd think there would be disorder, even chaos. But in
many arenas, a lack of traditional leadership is giving rise to powerful
groups that are turning industry and society upside down. In short,
there's a revolution raging all around us. (…) Decentralization has
been lying dormant for thousands of years. But the advent of the
Internet has unleashed this force, knocking down traditional
businesses, altering entire industries, affecting how we relate to each
other, and influencing world politics. The absence of structure,
leadership, and formal organization, once considered a weakness, has
become a major asset. Seemingly chaotic groups have challenged
and defeated established institutions. The rules of the game have
changed.”

Toward the "new" turn of the century, because of, especially, the

and unsolicited new players emerged:
The anonymous, and self-proclaimed leaker (the little brother
watching back the Big Brother); that is, the person who,
somewhat more equipped than the whistleblowing role model
of the past, turns around, asymmetrically, the intelligence and
surveillance mechanisms against the authorities, and makes
use of the same dissemination platforms -which are used by the
Big Brother- for purposes of some deliberate dissidence...
