About this listen
Modern civilisation was built on the assumption that systems could operate largely in separation. Markets optimised locally. Nations governed within borders. Ecological consequences appeared distant. That world has changed. Economic, technological, and ecological systems are now tightly interdependent.Decisions made in one domain increasingly propagate across many others. Interdependence is intensifying, but the institutional capacity to manage it is lagging. From Separation to Coherence examines how stability emerges under these conditions. Drawing on systems thinking, economics, geopolitics, and scientific perspectives on complex systems, the book explores a structural shift unfolding across modern civilisation. As interdependence deepens, societies tend to stabilise through one of two pathways: compression, where control tightens and variance narrows, or coherence, where coordination capacity expands across actors. The argument of this book is simple: under sustained interdependence, long-term stability depends less on independence and more on relational alignment between systems, institutions, and decision-making structures. This is not a work of ideology. It is an examination of structure — how complex systems behave when density increases and insulation disappears.©2026 Alan Gibson (P)2026 Alan Gibson International Relations Philosophy Politics & Government Sociology
