In The End, There Will Be Little

Manhattan Is An Accumulation Of Possible Disasters That Never Happen.

Lagos Was Not Very Inviting Even To Lagosians. It Was Considered A No-go Zone, Almost In Its Entirety.

The Real Thing We Tried To Look At Is What Happens To A Society When The State Is Absent. At That Point, The State Had Really Withdrawn From Lagos; The City Was Left To Its Own Devices, Both In Terms Of Money And Services. That, By Definition, Created An Unbelievable Proliferation Of Independent Agency: Each Citizen Needed To Take, In Any Day, Maybe 400 Or 500 Independent Decisions On How To Survive That Extremely Complex System.
