Peter Turchin’s The Great Holocene Transformation
The roots of the Turkish-Qatari-Ikhwani alliance and its activities in North Africa and the Middle East
The article considers the formation of the Turkish-Qatari-Ikhwani alliance, which attained international prominence and strengthened its leadership position in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) during the events of the Arab Spring. While some researchers posit the formation of this alliance just before the Arab Spring, this study argues that cooperation between Türkiye, Qatar and the Muslim Brotherhood (al-Ikhwan) has deeper roots, going ba…

Urbanization, the Youth, and Protest
Demographic changes associated with the transformation from traditional to advanced economies are the basis for many of today’s theories of violent and non-violent protest formation. Both levels of urbanization and the size of the “youth bulge” have shown to be reliable measures for predicting protest events in a country. As these two processes result from modernization, it seems logical to hypothesize that the combined effect of the rise in urba…
Image of Russia in Afghanistan 30 Years after the Soviet Union Collapse
Ввод советских войск в Афганистан (1979–1989) до сих пор негативно влияет на образ России в глазах граждан современного Афганистана. Тем не менее, как показывают результаты проведенных в 2019–2020 гг. опросов (N = 700), этот образ улучшился во многом благодаря предоставлению гуманитарной и экономической помощи, военной поддержки в борьбе с терроризмом и наркотрафиком, содействию в сфере образования. В ходе исследования выявлено, что в Афганистане…
Relative Deprivation as a Factor of Sociopolitical Destabilization
The article analyzes relative deprivation as a possible factor of sociopolitical instability during the Arab Spring events using the methods of correlation and multiple regression analysis. In this case, relative deprivation is operationalized in two ways: (a) through the indicator of subjective feeling of happiness on the eve of the events of the Arab Spring, and (b) through the scale of decrease of the subjective feeling of happiness on the eve…

The Importance of Gossip Across Societies
This article presents a cross-cultural analysis that explores the relationship between the importance of gossip and institutionalization. It is reasoned that as institutionalization increases, so does the difficulty of attaining direct information about events and people that would be consequential for any given individual. As a result, gossip should increase with institutionalization, and complexity generally. This general hypothesis is tested a…
Female Labor Force Participation Rate, Islam, and Arab Culture in Cross-Cultural Perspective
Burton and Reitz suggested that Islam should tend to decrease the levels of female labor force participation rate, because “societies that seclude their women by means of purdah or similar customs will have lower rates of female participation in activities outside of the immediate household.” Our cross-cultural tests have supported this hypothesis. However, a closer analysis shows that a high correlation is predicted mostly by the “Arab factor,” …
Wife-Husband Intimacy and Female Status in Cross-Cultural Perspective
This article hypothesizes that in societies where spouses are considered to have relatively equal status, they are more likely to be intimate with one another than in societies where there is spousal status inequality. The authors ask: What are the core attributes of intimacy between husband and wife cross-culturally? And what sociocultural norms and practices are associated with intimate/nonintimate spousal relationships? Five variables are used…
Comment on
Turchin’s article achieves significant progress in the modeling of demographic cycles as a basic feature of complex agrarian systems' dynamics. He suggests an extremely simple model accounting for an unusually high percentage of the political-demographic variation, including some features for which earlier models failed to account. Rather than modeling the recovery phase of the demographic cycle as starting immediately after the demographic colla…
Monopolization of Information and Female Status
The world-wide cross-cultural tests performed in this paper support the hypothesis that monopolization of politically important information is inversely related with female status. Monopolization of politically important information displays a significant negative correlation with such important characteristics of female status as female leadership posts in kinship or extended family units, female ownership or control of dwellings, high value of …
Factors of Sexual Freedom Among Foragers in Cross-Cultural Perspective
Among the negative predictors of sexual freedom, cultural complexity always has been mentioned as most important. However, regression analysis revealed the existence of a reverse trend within the interval between 11 and 22 points of Murdock’s Cumulative Scale of Cultural Complexity. This suggests that it is senseless to try to find a general set of regularities regarding the correlation between cultural complexity and sexual freedom. One would ex…
Unilineal Descent Organization and Deep Christianization
The author studies variables that are usually regarded as the main causes of the decline of unilineal descent organization (statehood, class stratification and commercialization), along with a variable that has never been regarded as such a cause—deep Christianization. He finds that the traditionally accepted causes of the decline of unilineal descent organization are less significant (ρ = −.26 for the statehood; ρ= −.18 for class stratification,…
Status of Women, Female Contribution to Subsistence, and Monopolization of Information
Although the statement that female status correlates negatively with cultural complexity is generally true, the real relation between these two groups of variables is much more complicated. Some important female status variables are characterized by significant positive correlation with cultural complexity within its certain ranges. There are some grounds for attributing this correlation to the rise of female status brought about by the transitio…
Early State” in Cross-Cultural Perspective
The authors reanalyze Claessen’s data set on the “Early States.” Though Claessen’s Early State typology is largely justified, we suggest some corrections and amendments to his typologization and his model of Early State evolution. We show that the development of personal ownership of land correlates rather weakly with the political development of the Early State, and that political development might be accompanied by the strengthening of communal…
