REPUBLIC's PAUSE

The Aegean World has been ruled from 1000bc by the First Delos Ligue (the the Second, Third etc..), after the doom of Minos (Creta). Athens was the main city of the Ligue. Temples were in Delos, schools, sanctuaries and informations. Regularly a pilgrimage, called the Theory, was shipping from Athens to Delos and back to Athens. Sometimes this Theory was requested for some urgent issue in the City.
For instance Socrates had to wait the Delos Theory to get confirmation of the verdict which sentenced him to death.

Yet one notices that some times before, in the decay of the Ligue, Athens had brought back to the mainland (Dolphes) the main documents of Delos. Although Socrates had been designed by the Pithy as the Wisest Man (or Most Informed Man; a kind of Dalaï Lama for Athens) the Delos report was unable to turn over the Theory of his Death.
Socrates died then.

The Initiates knew that it was the sign of the end of the Athenian Cycle. The success of the Republic/Democracy transformation was postponed - meanwhile, it was time to divulgue and scatter the knowledge previously kept secret in the Schools/Temples (so that it could reform later and/or elswhere, into a new civilization cycle)

Among his student and Colleagues Plato described to sociology of the political Athenian world. In The Republic, he explained that Athens principles could not support its own evolution for something was lacking - he staid elusive in saying what it was (it was lacking!); yet he gave a mathematical metaphore.

It can be shown today (now that the 'thing' does not lack anymore) that the zero, the cypher number, was that missing element (brought 9 centuries later by Islam).

And it can be also understood today, that such a 'lacking' element had to be complex - i.e. composed of several dimensions (more that a mathematical single realization). When it understood Genetics, the twentieth centuries could refer Patronimy in its dimension. This naming of the filiation (male) thourough the human species has been deciphered by Lacan and connected to the mathematical zero (see Seminar on Psychosis).

In the biological and cortical dimension, this is shown as the surdetermination of the Object by the Sphincter - alias the edge of the hole for the hole as postulated by Modern Topology.

Thus the conjonction of the post-roman numeration (the zero became used in Europe after 1000ad) and genetical personalizing (the Name-of-the-Father has been geneticaly refered around 1950ad) brings the concept in the Republic which motives its turn into Democracy.
The result of this process is an Ecology whose knowledge combines the use of Freudian Transference and Artificial intelligence.
