Note:These videos summarize selected topics in governance, but they misunderstand the basic relationship between systems. This video, for example, presumes that governance structures and practices in the tribal community could be an example of today’s civilized society. This misunderstanding arises from not appreciating the qualitative difference between tribal and civilized societies (see Berhanu Anteneh, Beyond Orders: Governments’ True Purpose).
