Summary

The conclusion summarises key findings and delineates potential routes for further research that could continue in the footsteps of, and further flesh out, the ideas developed in this book. In particular, I discuss the relevance of examining conditions that may unleash social avalanches and suggest that approaches as diverse as agent-based modelling and Randall Collins’s ritual interaction theory provide promising ways forwards.
