The Origins of Political Order | Fukuyama and the Evolution of Power - Episode 15

If you’ve ever wondered how humans went from chaotic tribes to building governments, empires, and messy modern democracies, this episode is for you. 🏛️ Join JD and Andrew as they break down Francis Fukuyama’s The Origins of Political Order, a sweeping journey through history that asks: Why do some societies build strong states while others crumble into corruption? What’s the link between religion, warfare, and political trust? And is democracy really the end of history… or just another experiment in the grand lab of human civilization? Expect detours into Chinese bureaucracy, medieval church drama, chimp politics, and why ancient kings were the original startup founders. It’s political philosophy meets anthropology meets “bro history,” and it’s surprisingly hilarious. 👉 Stick around for the ending discussion, where the brothers wrestle with what “order” even means today.
