Temporary Autonomous Zone, nice reference in the article, and a pretty great book by the pretty flawed man "Hakim Bey."

Was a great book. We thought TAZ was like Original Burning Man at inception then the Black Rock TAZ under 10,000 was cool.

This is an “Ayn Rand” type of White Paper! Lot for most to take in, in fact reading is one thing understanding is entirely another.

Understanding men is the art of politics. Governing men is the law of Ulysses and his crew where only one is Chief by right.

Understanding man is not predictable based upon Free Will. Governments are and will always fall to greed, power or belief in understanding the soul of members. When Natural Law prevails, GOD will be chief.

Not predictable but men are men and con men are intuitive. Good leaders also must have intuition. And for crowds we have the use of Rhetoric. So my view is cunning and force the backbone of Empires and history documents the rubble, though to my taste Shelly in Ozymandias is able to sum it well.
