"A new area of study is the field that some of us are beginning to call social traps. The term refers to situations in society that contain traps formally like a fish trap, 
where men or whole societies get themselves started in some direction or some set of relationships that later prove to be unpleasant or lethal and that they see no 
easy way to back out of or to avoid."
