Except for mainstream ones (structures: democracy, authoritarianism and their countless variants; ideologies: capitalism, socialism, their derivatives and mixtures (whatever China is using); there’s enough discussions about them, right?). I hope to see in-depth technical discussions on this matter, please.

Describe how such structures would usually function, function under duress (internal and external threats), bootstrap from scratch or other existing structures, its ability to survive, thrive and evolve over time and so on. Give links or citations if there are research papers or articles.

Describe ideologies as the memes they are (meme in the original sense, not what the word means now (compare what happened with “robot”); “mind virus”, as some “great” man aptly put it); or in more formal manner if you can imagine, seeds (genes?) of frameworks of thought that provide directions for human political endeavour going forward and so on. Also try to make it so general that it might be applicable for all intelligent agents, what strategies they might use (without sufficient power, strategic intrigue is the usual way to achieving political goals).

Oh, please keep the discussion civil.

    The listed ones have an abundance of discussion about them. What I understand is that the niche ones are quite underrepresented in media as well as discussions, or so it appears to be. Therefore, I am looking for them… There should be people who have thought similarly, right?
