Abstract
- This paper is the seventh in a series in which the political careers of civilizations/world systems receive snapshot codings of their overall power structures at feasible intervals. The narratives are produced by collating histories with large frames of reference. The codings are done using a nominal variable, polarity, with seven available values. Previous articles in the series have examined the Indic system 550 BC--AD 1800, the Far Eastern 1025 BC--AD 1850, the Southwest Asian c. 2700--1500 BC, the Northeast African c. 2625--1500 BC. The Northeast African and Southwest Asian systems and sequences merged c. 1500 BC to form the Central system. Previous papers have coded this system from 1500 BC to 400 BC. The current paper narrates and codes the century from 400 BC to 300 BC at 10-year intervals, and examines the entire period from 1500 BC to 300 BC in various ways. ..PAT.-Conference Proceeding [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
