说明

这是2008年由eon3发布的一部课堂讲座，主题归在World history。它讲的是imperial decline这一支里的具体问题，而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合按兴趣直接看、不打算先补课的人。内容上可以概括成：Chalmers Johnson, author of Blowback and Sorrows of Empire, lectures on parallels between the decline of the Roman and Soviet empires and the United States. He argues the US shows the same symptoms: overextension, corruption, and an inability to reform.这些读者给出的理由，核心是：Cited in threads on American decline, civil unrest and economic crisis as a classic statement of the imperial-decay thesis.它贴着当时的技术，看的时候要记得那是那个年份的判断。从2018年到2023年，有1位不同的读者在1个不同月份把它推荐出来，其中明确叫别人去看的有0次。节奏接近上课，可以暂停做笔记。它假设你愿意跟着一条推导走完。如果已经会了基本定义，就把注意力放在它怎么把imperial decline变成能跟着复述的例子。
