Sommario/riassunto |
|
Ranging widely across the Near East, the Aegean, East Asia, Mesoamerica, and the Andes, these cross-cultural studies expand our understanding of social evolution by examining how societies were transformed during the period of radical change now termed "collapse." This work seeks to discover how societal complexity reemerged, how second-generation states formed, and how these re-emergent states resembled or differed from the complex societies that preceded them. Opens up a new window on the past by shifting the focus away from the rise and fall of ancient civilizations to their often more telling fall and rise. |
