Till Death Tear Us Apart: A Structural Analysis of the Longevity Asymmetry and the Closing Window

This book examines what happens to political stability when mortality itself becomes a function of economic access. Building on Bowlby's attachment theory, Frankfurt and Williams on constitutive commitments, and a four-stage historical sequence traced from the Yellow Turban Rebellion through the Taiping Rebellion to the present, it argues that the convergence of recursive AI self-improvement with longevity biomedicine produces a form of inequality — differential survival — for which no existing governance mechanism was designed. The book identifies five structural paradoxes that close off conventional remedies, and argues through eliminative reasoning that the window for preemptive international coordination is narrowing. It does not predict an outcome. It specifies the conditions under which its own argument would be falsified.
