Sinossi
Modern societies rarely collapse because solutions are unavailable.
They collapse because decisions are deferred.
In Avoidable Collapse, Allison Irene examines how institutional fragility emerges not through sudden shocks, but through prolonged delay—where political incentives, economic structures, and energy constraints interact to narrow governing capacity over time.
Rather than focusing on moments of crisis, the book traces how capacity is gradually eroded:
- how dysfunction becomes normalized within institutions
- how short-term stabilization displaces long-term planning
- how delay itself evolves into a governing strategy
This is not a prediction of catastrophe. It is an examination of how constraint, delay, and diminished capacity converge to produce outcomes that later appear unavoidable.
