Image
  The Universe 25 experiment by John Calhoun is indeed a fascinating and controversial model often cited in discussions about overpopulation, societal breakdown, and urban decay. However, its validity as a model for human societies is heavily debated. Here's a balanced breakdown of both sides of the debate: Arguments Supporting the Validity of Universe 25 as a Model: Predictive Power in Urban Sociology: Calhoun’s work is often interpreted as a metaphor for the consequences of overcrowding and lack of meaningful social roles, which can be paralleled with rising alienation, mental health issues, and social dysfunctions in urban human populations. Consistent Patterns in Repetition: The fact that the experiment was repeated multiple times with similar results lends some credence to the idea that there are systemic issues triggered by overcrowding and resource saturation. Influence on Policy and Urban Design: The findings influenced thinkers in psychology and urban p...
