The historian, Yuval Noah Harari, explains, in his book Sapiens: from animals to gods, the secret of the immense power of our species. A power that it is good to understand in its essence, and in its origin in order to deepen the value of strategy in relation to political power.
Seventy thousand years ago, six human species inhabited our planet, all of them insignificant in terms of their planetary impact. But today only one of those remains, Homo sapiens. And this species, of which we are a part, rules the world in an absolute way.
How did we do it? How could this species that was insignificant conquer so much power?
What made it different from the rest of the animal species?
Harari's research concludes that the big difference that has given Homo sapiens all the power is that we are the only species capable of cooperating in a massive yet flexible way. Therein lies the key to power: such massive cooperation makes it possible to undertake enormous undertakings and achieve gigantic successes that would be impossible for individuals or small groups. And that cooperation, moreover, by being flexible (unlike, for example, the rigid mass cooperation of ants or bees) allows us to evaluate and adjust the collective work as it develops.
