Hierarchical Differentiation Versus Adaptative Change: A Noospheric Encounter in Political Anthropology

I can all too readily identify with Kenneth Boulding's statements regarding the rarified levels of intellectual abstraction to which some German and French philosophers are prone. I, too, dislike the sort of philosophy he has in mind and so take the liberty of attributing his discomfort to the style of my English rather than to the philosophy of my article. Therefore I shall first rephrase the section of the article which Boulding quotes in a more straightforward way. This is, I think, a good starting point for my response to both commentaries.
