Cipollas 5 Gesetze der Dummheit

Cipolla's theory divides people into four categories: helpless, intelligent, bandits, and stupid. He outlines five laws of stupidity, emphasizing that stupidity is independent of other traits and is harmful to society. The impact of these groups varies, with intelligent people benefiting society, while stupid people cause net losses. Cipolla argues that stupidity is inherent and can be exacerbated by power.
