Demography is Destiny: Thought Experiments in Peak Population
TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Thought Experiments in Peak Population
Is demographics destiny? Is it sufficient to know the actuarial overview of a people to know their history? Is everything else beyond sheer numbers epiphenomenal to human civilization? In this episode I discuss Auguste Comte, Hannah Arendt, Thomas Robert Malthus, Malthusianism, twentieth century aesthetic movements, biospheric limits, civilizational carrying capacity, extraterrestrialization, cosmological environments of evolutionary adapteness, Derek Parfit, the repugnant conclusion, utilitarianism, Jeremy Bentham, John Stuart Mill, and the history of rapid expansionary episodes, and price to be paid for overextension.
