about 165 years ago. Many independent clans

conflicts had arisen numerous times among all
civilizations. Be it the huge Chinese Empire, the
British Empire or the Spanish Empire, armed
conflicts had always flared up no matter what
forms of government, democratic or a dictatorship,
a country belongs to. Strangely, it is only in
humans do we see such large-scale slaughtering of
each other. The reason for this is because we are
sociable organisms and live in groups instead of
individually. Humans al...

Alexithymia And The Defense Of Primal Repression
1,197 words
Primal Repression may well account for the psychic
structural defect and many of the clinical
features associated with the alexithymia
construct. [James D. A. Parker and Graeme J.
Taylor in Disorders of Affect Regulation p. 89 ]
Repression proper is a defensive process that
evolves out of primal repression, and involves a
rejection from the conscious mind of already
formed instinctual wishes and other

Communism", it might appear that Marxist theory
has been relegated to little more than an
historical or even archeological artefact with
little relevance to or influence over an ever
encroaching and expanding, global ising
capitalism. Socialism "proper", as a state
economic model and ideology seems to have been
banished to the margins of the world scene. The
disastrous results in terms of the dictatorships
and totalitarianism that have ensued wher...

MARKET FAILURE AND UNCERTAINTY In this essay I
would like to argue that market failure is the
reason for hierarchy. I will argue that market
failure leads to uncertainty and that uncertainty
leads to incomplete contracts. To explore the
notion of incomplete contracts I have used the
ideas of Milgromand Roberts. They describe how

possible the expression and communication of

laryngeal production of sound (which some animals
also possess), speech requires a resonance system
for modulation and amplification of that sound and
an articulation proc...
