The Chalice and the Blade: Our History, Our Future — Partnership vs Domination Systems
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.
This episode explores The Chalice and the Blade: Our History, Our Future by Riane Eisler as a systems-level analysis of how hierarchical and partnership models shape institutional design, gender relations, and the persistence of power structures.
By focusing on incentive architectures rather than individual actors, the episode explains why dominator systems reproduce themselves across generations — and why isolating inequality from structural design distorts understanding.
