Tribal: How the Cultural Instincts That Divide Us Can Help Bring Us Together
Morris, M. (2025). Tribal: How the Cultural Instincts That Divide Us Can Help Bring Us Together. Third printing, 2025. [SEED BOOK, NOT RE-READ AT SOURCE ON THIS PASS. Everything attributed to it comes from this vault's eight digests of the book, read in full on this pass, with the book hub and session note held alongside. NOT A STUDY.] USE IT FOR framing and vocabulary only, at pp. xxviii, 11, 49, 114 to 115 and 157: the claim that tribe-level learning rather than heightened individual brainpower is the secret of human adaptability, and the cult boundary condition, where a cult is a community that severely restricts the prestige signals its members receive so that leaders acquire extreme mystique and control, with plural membership as the ordinary protection. THE LIMIT, STATED EVERY TIME: the book contains NO study measuring a commercial outcome of a brand community, the two chapters carrying its brand material are the thinnest in its apparatus, it has no bibliography, and it reports no effect size anywhere. So NO figure from it is carried as a finding.
