The idea that the future can be “guaranteed” through simulations is a failure to understand the nature of the field we are immersed in, which is unpredictable at its core. Day-to-day fieldwork does not prepare us to guarantee that future either, but it does make us more humble and a true friendship between communities begins to emerge, which in the long run is always more beneficial than any system of governance/control. Yes, we are falling back to the basics, and it has to be that way.
