Explains how a group of radicals overthrew the British Empire and created the USA.
Yes, but it likely doesn’t always work or there would never ever be a stable culture for long periods of time. There has to be something else at work. The new idea has to have something seductive or provocative. Or the group has to be in some way unhappy with the status quo or easily manipulated, etc. I don’t buy that this is simply all there is to it.
