And accepting that the archetype of a culture defines the level of work that is the standard in an environment sounds deterministic and for some people racist. Because it implies that every culture obtains what it produces; that underdevelopment is defined by the underdeveloped, development by the developed and emergent by the emerging.

Power can be measured in speed. That is why we say we can make a metaphor and measure the level of development in speed.

If developed cultures move at a speed of 100 km/hour, underdeveloped evolve more slowly.

That is why the gap between development and underdevelopment increases from day to day.

But emergent cultures are emergent because they move faster than the developed ones, which means that the gap between emergent cultures and developed cultures decreases from day to day, until the emergent cultures surpass the developed cultures.

The speed of cultures and individuals define their work and therefore their Power. By assessing the speed of work you will know what to expect.

* Excerpt from the conclusions of the research published in Book  III: “The Nature of Economic Power” from the book “The Power of Nations” by Peter Belohlavek.

The purpose of a confrontation is to impose someone’s authority upon others. This can happen in any field (military, economic, personal, emotional, etc.).

The Dissuasion Power is given by the capacity to expand without needing to confront. But the capacity to develop the dissuasion power depends on the technological supremacy.

The one who imposes a standard, a culture, values or duties is the one who rules and implicitly is the one who won a confrontation. The active function of confronting is eluding confrontations in order to avoid paying the prices of an explicit conflict. *

The capacity to defend the vital space is what provides a minimum strategy to the confrontation context.

Paradoxically, the maximal strategy of any confrontation is not to confront, and this can only happen when the technological supremacy is accepted and feared and therefore the dissuasion capacity is extreme. When this is not the case, not confronting is not a winning strategy, it is just not competing.

Adaptive systems are systems that have open boundaries to interact with the external and internal environment.

The difference between adaptive systems and systemic systems is that the first ones are driven by taxonomic procedures.

Taxonomic procedures are those that are ruled by an ontological logic that has to be followed in order to achieve the planned results. Nature is an adaptive system.

Businesses are typical adaptive systems. They are entities that interact with the environment having the characteristics of a complex system but with an implicit and explicit duty to produce a predefined result.

We use the word “business” as a synonym of “work”. Healthcare is a paradigmatic case of dealing with adaptive systems.

There are two different taboos: Co-existence or co-habitation taboos that drive toward expansion and subsistence or survival taboos. An evolving culture is driven by coexistence or cohabitation taboos. On the other hand, an involving culture is driven by subsistence and survival taboos.

The active function that provides freedom is driven by utopias and the energy conservation function that provides security is driven by myths.

The description of each of these concepts will provide the necessary conceptual information on human anthropological drivers.

Archetypes are extremely abstract concepts that guide the behavior of a culture. They define the attitudes of cultures and drive their automatisms. Understanding them allows developing bridges to maximize expansion minimizing conflicts.

Innovation is the basis for economic growth.  Essentially, countries, cultures, institutions, and individuals grow only in the fields where they are open to innovations.

The purpose of innovation is to overcome scarcity. That is why only people or cultures that have the will, find the way to overcome scarcity.  This is the cultural context that fosters innovation.

The driver of innovation is human creation. The word creation is used in the sense of recreation. Humans create based on the existing energy.

The maximal strategy of innovations drives towards the solution of a scarcity. Therefore innovative organizations have the perception that they add value to the environment. But this is only true if the minimum strategy is also fulfilled.

The minimum strategy implies inserting the innovations into the social capital of the environment. Social capital is defined by the strength of the bonds that integrate the members of a community.

Commercial innovations need to be only one step ahead of the habits of the environment. If they are more than one step ahead they fail, unless there is an extreme need and they are, implicitly, a “back to basics”.

In this field Procter & Gamble is a notorious benchmark.

China’s Structure

China is a culture based on the consistency of the social and individual efforts and the capacity of accepting trade-offs to achieve the goals of the country.

The Chinese model has to be understood in itself without comparing it with other countries. It has multiple economic models working simultaneously. It is neither a communist nor a capitalist model. It uses multiple unique solutions which imply permanent trade-offs between the different models to achieve its growth.

The Communist Party can be considered as homologous to the ancient nobility in Europe but representing the interests of China as a country and the needs of its population.

Entering the Communist Party needs to be earned because within the party there has to be an ideological consistency to allow a democratic behavior. The Communist Party is the “Establishment” of China.

Confucius’ Concept

Confucianism is a functional philosophy for a culture that needs to grow in a context of an extremely large country with a large population. Order is necessary to sustain consistency.

Minorities in China have to behave within the limits of the explicit and implicit Chinese model. Censorship and self-censorship are a need to avoid that the culture loses its consistency. But although censorship becomes necessary in this context, it is also the implicit weakness of the Chinese archetype.

Cultures evolve based on their implicit weaknesses. Therefore, a generational change can be expected in this field depending on the new trade-offs the culture will make.

A Shielded Culture

China has been, is and will be a shielded archetype, protecting its culture and beliefs in order to ensure its consistency and allowing making the necessary trade-offs to grow.

This shield was represented by the Chinese Wall in the past, and now it is represented by the multiple regulations that establish the framework of the country.

Maximal Strategy

The maximal strategy of China is driven by the working capacity of the culture and the catalyst for the minimum strategy is their cultural shield that ensures the consistency of its actions. The cultural shield works as a protection from foreign influence and internal distortions.

Minimum Strategy

The minimum strategy is driven by the individual working capacity of its population. The entropy inhibitor, to ensure the achievement of growth, is the ideological shield that ensures the focus of the efforts on the objectives that are being achieved.

The personal capacity of making trade-offs is installed in the population and makes individuals extremely focused achievers.

To apprehend the Chinese archetype it is necessary to understand Doers, avoiding ideological, religious or social comparisons. China was, is and will be unique. China doesn’t base its expansion on exporting culture, but on exporting products.
