And reading this forwards, something in the pre-human era produced human beings (we right-thinking folks insist that that was evolution, of course). And something in the pre-feudal historical conditions gave rise to feudalism. And ... gave rise to capitalism. So the question inquiring minds are asking is: what in the present (or foreseeable-future) conditions is going to give rise to anarchism (world-wide, more or less simultaneously)? Inquiring minds aren't looking for a detailed answer, of course, just a general idea.
