Abstract
Abstract Confronted with environmental challenges, societies traditionally resist adaptative change. Morally sanctioned values guide behavior top‐down, discouraging deviations from accepted norms or structural arrangements. But contemporary societies are embedded in environments so dynamic that commitments to formal identities jeopardize their survival. A more flexible strategy for social evolution is derived by interpreting American Constitutional history in terms of dissipative structures, Chaos, and Post‐Modernist literary theory. Social evolution then appears to be a self‐generated, language‐like process freeing behavioral expression to track environmental shifts through procedural constraints.
