this has had on our societies, the environment, and other species.
2. How does Harari define the Cognitive Revolution?
Answer: The Cognitive Revolution, which occurred around 70,000 years
ago, refers to the emergence of advanced thinking, language, and
communication in Homo sapiens, allowing them to cooperate in large
groups and develop complex cultures.
3. What is the Agricultural Revolution?
Answer: The Agricultural Revolution, which began around 12,000 years
ago, marks the shift from foraging to farming. This change allowed
humans to settle in one place and led to the growth of villages, cities, and
eventually civilizations.
4. What is Harari’s view on the Agricultural Revolution?
Answer: Harari argues that the Agricultural Revolution was not
necessarily beneficial for individuals, as it led to more hard labor, social
hierarchies, and environmental destruction. He refers to it as a "trap"
because it made humans dependent on farming.
5. How does Harari explain the concept of "imagined orders"?
Answer: "Imagined orders" are shared beliefs and social constructs that
exist only because people collectively agree on them. These include
concepts like nations, religions, and corporations, which govern human
behavior despite having no tangible existence.
