Social inertia

[edit]
  • ... that social inertia has been used to explain how dominant groups maintain their status and privileges over time?
  • ALT1: ... that social inertia discourages chickens from attacking one another after a social order has been established?

5x expanded by Wenwenni (talk). Self nominated at 09:59, 22 November 2013 (UTC).

  • Correct me if I am wrong, but this is not a 5x expansion nor is it a new article. Proudbolsahye (talk) 06:28, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
    • - here is the 5x diff. Article looks good (does a good job of explaining the academic topic), with suitable refs. I prefer ALT1 hook, the source for which has been specifically verified.  Frank  |  talk  14:13, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
  • The source provided for the hook doesn't even mention social inertia. Gatoclass (talk) 08:44, 11 December 2013 (UTC)
  • To clarify, when I said "I prefer ALT1 hook", what I really meant was "I have verified ALT1". I agree the original hook is not specifically sourced.  Frank  |  talk  02:02, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
