Interesting perspective. Taleb believes among other things that the invention of the nation state led to more wars by centralizing power/bureaucracy (this goes against Kissinger views among others). His view is that one should try to decentralize in order to avoid Black swan events.

Antifragile is an interesting concept (order which becomes stronger by integrating disorder). I just have a had time with Taleb is he is sometimes too much of a contrarian, and tryint too hard to sell this concept. I'm not looking to be sold something, just looking to find out whats true.
