 The model for human domestication is based on the two elements which we have the longest running historical record of: economics and world view. Using world view to validate economics as the fundamental driver for history is somewhat analogous with the ongoing work on the standard model in physics. The Higgs field is assumed to exist, or some force like it, because physicists know something is required to break the symmetry of massless sub particles to enable them to suddenly contain mass and other properties such as increased velocity. This model uses world view in much the same way. We know something very fundamental in history causes sudden shifts in world view after long stretches of time where the world view had been previously totally embraced and refined. What this model is predicated upon are Long Waves as this fundamental symmetry breaker for world view even though I do not posses the discrete economic data as proof. Long Waves are the equivilent of the Higgs field. However if events are viewed through the lens of Long Waves or some economic force such as Long Waves, the repetitive cyclical effect for the historic shifts in world view and the resulting trajectories are clearly visible even to the causal observer. In fact they become somewhat predictable as a result. After 2000 there have been several significant breakthroughs which have for the first time enabled the construction of a standard historical model. After 2000 we saw a breakthrough in macroeconomic Long Wave modeling from Carlota Perez. Substantive advancement and definition in historical world view prior to the advent in writing were also provided through DNA mapping via Spencer Wells and in cognitive archeology from David Lewis-Williams and David Pearce. From these seminal advancements we are now enabled to create a standard model. What the model reveals is that humanity has always maintained world view as a survival guide which comprises all of the collective knowledge for a particular period in time. Those survival guides have under gone a cyclical process for update, transmission and refinement relative to the economic era. The survival guides cycle is the result of human economic Long Waves. By plotting both of these constants for the human family, our domestication cycles are now visible. The model should be reviewed as a think piece.
