In this web content, the author explores the driving factors behind social change throughout history. They propose that a small number of exceptional individuals create functional institutions that serve as the foundation of society. These institutions are then imitated by others, but the original versions outperform their imitators, leading to societal growth and prosperity. However, over time, these institutions decay and society changes. The author presents this theory, titled Great Founder Theory, as a lens through which to analyze current and historical events. They also mention that a book expanding on these ideas is in the works.
