Why Jerusalem Has Controlled Every Empire | Prof. Jiang Xueqin

Описание: #wakeupcall

The lectures featured on this channel are delivered by Jiang Xueqin, a public intellectual known for exploring history, power, game theory, philosophy, and civilizational dynamics.

🔗 Original lectures & channel: @PredictiveHistory

This video presents a speculative, theory-driven exploration of how power, group cohesion, transgression, belief systems, and philosophical frameworks shape human societies across history and into the present.

Drawing on historical analogies, thought experiments, game theory, and classical philosophy, the lecture examines how extreme conditions produce unity, how shared sacrifice reinforces loyalty, and how societies construct meaning around power, morality, and survival. Rather than offering definitive conclusions, the lecture invites viewers to think critically about patterns that repeat across civilizations ancient and modern.

All ideas discussed are presented as theoretical frameworks and intellectual tools, not as statements of absolute truth. The purpose of this content is to encourage deeper reflection on how social systems function, how belief and perception influence behavior, and how history, philosophy, and psychology intersect.
