थ्रेड: #Hierarchy
समाजशास्त्र में एक सिद्धांत है। "Power is zero sum game" का। मतलब जैसे ऊर्जा उत्पन्न या नष्ट नहीं की जा सकती केवल एक स्वरुप से दूसरे स्वरुप में परिवर्तित की जा सकती है वैसे ही शक्ति भी केवल एक व्यक्ति से दूसरी व्यक्ति को ट्रांसफर की जा सकती है।
अगर किसी व्यक्ति कि शक्ति बढ़ रही है बदले में किसी न किसी कि शक्ति कम भी हो रही है। मानव समाज विकास के प्रारंभिक चरण को "प्रिमिटिव कम्युनिज्म" कहा जाता है जहाँ सबके पास सामान शक्ति हुआ करती थी।
धीरे धीरे शक्ति का असंतुलन बढ़ता गया और सत्ता कुछ लोगों के हाथ में केंद्रित होकर रह गई। धीरे धीरे एक पूरी शक्ति की एक पूरी हायरार्की बन गई। सबसे ऊपर राजा, फिर सामंत, फिर राज कर्मचारी, फिर व्यापारी, फिर आम प्रजा।

"The 🇯🇴 soldiers welcomed us at the border to sent us toward the camps. I told him 'wait a minute, I want to have a last look at Syria.'"
Listening to @lysedoucet & @LoraElwen report on the 10th anniversary of @ZaatariCamp and it brought back memories bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3… /1
Memories of spending close to a decade working with @SavetheChildren for children and families affected by conflict in #Syria, #Iraq, #Somalia, #Myanmar, #Palestine, and many other places. And losing #cynicism, finding #purpose, and changing my perspective on conflict and war. /2
In 2011, I was sitting in an air conditioned office at @WorldBank in Washington DC. I thought I had landed my dream job. But instead I had tasted #bureaucracy, #hierarchy and the #cynicism of organizational politics. If you had met the 2011 version of myself, you would agree. /3

Help! What do you call organizational hierarchy (reporting lines) vs delivery structure (e.g. cross functional teams / value streams etc. where you have people from different departments coming together to deliver value).

Imagine a near future in which the fictional University of #Leonia announces a degree program in #DiscardStudies. In doing so, they help to establish this emerging field with a full #curriculum, dedicated faculty, and eager student population. 1/10 @DiscardStudies | #Discard2020 Image
At U of L, teaching discard studies is about more than talking #trash. This new program’s core trains students to use #SystemsThinking to critique #power as the structural force that renders material, people, and land as #waste in a globalized #ColonialCapitalist society. 2/10 Image
Treating objects and organisms as "#disposable" has consequences, but the root of this #WickedProblem runs deep below the surface. Traditional disciplines are insufficient for studying waste bc they focus on the details and fail to recognize the full picture (Brown, 2010). 3/10

BEFORE READING THIS THREAD, do you think this statement is TRUE or FALSE?

Despite being a documented #epidemic for decades, @HHSGov's #CenterForDiseaseControl(@CDCgov) intentionally obstructs its collecting #statistics on what causes at least 10% of deaths NEEDLESSLY every year.

HINT: You already know of these systemic #DataScams due to #PublicCorruption & #RegulatoryCapture:

ANOTHER HINT: My inability to escape intrahospital, interhospital & health/disability insurers’ #ConspiracyAgainstRights using #MedicalControlFrauds exposes motive of the right answer.
