4. 4 The Collapse of Complex Systems Complex societies collapse because, when stress arrives, those societies have become too inflexible to respond. Why didn’t these societies just re-tool in less complex ways? It is because they cannot. When the value of complexity turns negative, the inability to react and the tendency to remain as complex as ever ultimately lead to collapse, which is simply the last remaining method of simplification. “When society’s elite members add one layer of bureaucracy or demand one attribute too many, they end up extracting all value from their environment.” - Joseph Tainter The Collapse of Complex Societies 1988
