Description

Johan Nygren:

"16 years ago, Susan Blackmore released the seminal work The Meme Machine, and put forth in detail how cultures are created by smaller units of information called memes, darwinian replicators that evolve through mutation and selection, and that these were what constituted language, and cultures. The word meme had been around for decades, originally coined and popularized by Richard Dawkins in 1976, and similar concepts date back to early civilization. “ (https://steemit.com/bitnation/@johan-nygren/decentralized-law-and-post-geographical-communication-leads-to-decentralized-borderless-virtual-nations-dbvns)
