Dans l’affirmative, est-ce lié, comme dans le cas des animaux domestiques, à des changements du système limbique, dont on a vu qu’il régit la peur, l’agression et les réflexes de fuite ?

The less you use that mind of yours, the less you use the systems that are responsible for complicated things like episodic memories, or cognitive flexibility, the more likely it is to develop dementia.

| <p>🙇 When you are talking to a person in a ring smaller than yours, someone closer to the center of the crisis, the goal is to help. Listening is often more helpful than talking. But if you’re going to open your mouth, ask yourself if what you are about to say is likely to provide comfort and support. If it isn’t, don’t say it. Don’t, for example, give advice. <mark>People who are suffering from trauma don’t need advice.</mark> They need comfort and support. So say, “I’m sorry” or “This must really be hard for you” or “Can I bring you a pot roast?” Don’t say, “You should hear what happened to me” or “Here’s what I would do if I were you.” And don’t say, “This is really bringing me down.”</p> | |||

| <p>🕯 In this day and age, good storytelling is more necessary, but riskier, than ever before, particularly when it comes to science. Science informs medical, environmental, legal, and many other public decisions, as well as our personal opinions on what to be wary about and how to lead our lives. Important societal and individual actions depend on our best understanding of the world around us—now more than ever, with the plague in all our houses, and the worst yet to come with climate change.</p> | |||

Dans l’affirmative, est-ce lié, comme dans le cas des animaux domestiques, à des changements du système limbique, dont on a vu qu’il régit la peur, l’agression et les réflexes de fuite ?

| <blockquote> | |||
| <p>À date fixe, il faut défricher, labourer, semer, désherber, biner, couper, lier, battre, sécher, trier, moudre… Là où le chasseur-cueilleur jonglait avec les rythmes différents des multitudes d’organismes vivants dont il se nourrissait, l’agriculteur est enchaîné par des «&nbsp;routines méticuleuses&nbsp;», qui donnent naissance peu à peu à des rites, des fêtes, des cultes… Pour James Scott, tout ce processus a ouvert l’espace social où a pu s’installer&nbsp;l’État.</p> | |||
| <p><mark>Car le premier acte d’un État, c’est de lever un impôt.</mark> En Mésopotamie, c’était souvent un cinquième de la récolte, et, pour le receveur des impôts qui sillonnait la campagne, le blé et l’orge constituait une base fiscale idéale. Scott y voit la véritable raison de leur succès par rapport à d’autres plantes aux qualités nutritives comparables. Le blé pousse à la vue de tous, contrairement aux pommes de terre&#8239;; et ses épis se récoltent tous en même temps, contrairement aux légumineuses. La surveillance est donc aisée. Le produit de la récolte prend la forme de graines faciles à compter, à transporter et à stocker. Recenser, mesurer, arpenter furent les principales activités des États mésopotamiens, et l’écriture elle-même fut à l’origine un outil de contrôle fiscal. Les premières tablettes administratives d’Uruk, vers 3300-3100&nbsp;av. J.-C., sont «&nbsp;des listes, des listes et encore des listes, principalement de céréales, de main-d’œuvre et de&nbsp;taxes&nbsp;».</p> | |||

| </blockquote> | |||
| <p>Je suis en train de lire <em>Homo Domesticus</em> (<em>Against the grain</em> en anglais) de James C. Scott qui explore la naissance des premiers États et c’est fascinant à plus d’un titre. Merci à toutes les personnes qui me l’on&nbsp;suggéré.</p> | |||
| <p>Creuser l’<a href="https://larlet.fr/david/2020/09/16/">anarchisme</a>, c’est à un moment se demander comment est-ce que l’on en est arrivé à une telle délégation/acceptation, quelle histoire a été racontée pour que l’on accepte que certaines personnes aient plus de pouvoir que d’autres, qui a domestiqué qui et pour quels&nbsp;bénéfices.</p> | |||
| <p>J’apprécie d’avoir pu balayer pas mal de mes croyances sur les formations humaines initiales et leur rapport à l’agriculture ainsi qu’à l’élevage. Mais aussi à notre transformation potentielle en tant qu’espèce au cours de ce processus de&nbsp;sédentarité&nbsp;:</p> | |||
