Is the West more developed from an SD perspective?

If its a model its a model of collective humans not individual. Saying this person is a certain stage or i am a certain stage is masterbating.

I definitely agree with this. Spiral Dynamics may be the most interesting discovery in my lifetime, and I find it really spot on, but nothing makes me cringe more than when I see people say that this or that person is a certain color. Every single instinct in me tells me that this is not the way to go.

Yes the west is more advanced from a SD perspective. More people read books and talks about integration. However, the gap between the rich and poor in western countries seem to be widening. And there are some who have fallen to the wayside.

In other countries, they are mostly stage orange (still developing and gunning for money and power) or stage red (fighting for power and survival). Only a few countries like Japan, Singapore and UAE are really well developed physically. China has developed quite well and India is also rising. When these countries are more developed, their people will then start to develop more holistically.

I wouldn't worry much about that, as people who consider themselves very developed are mostly just Blue 😆
