Global Governance Futures: Imperfect Utopias or Bust
Heisenberg Uncertainty in Physics
In physics, at certain levels of scale you cannot decouple the consequences of the observer from the system. So if i am usingo photons to observe quantity phenomena, my photons are not going to move mountain or even a small weight. But if i'm using nuclear bombs to probe that one gram weight, then i vaporized the one gram weight. There's just really a relationship between the two. And soi can look at the system and my impact the system should be zero. At a certain threshold, our complicated approach is actually creating ripples in the complex environ which makes the environment harder to manage. This becomes a positive feeback loop in the direction of collapse.
