Abstract
► Society can be regarded as a gigantic maze constituted by relationships between people. ► From a physical standpoint it can be considered as a highly porous medium. ► In these media supercritical events, referred to as dragon-kings, may occur in two cases. ► When increasing stress is applied to a system (self-organized criticality scenario). ► When increasing conductivity of a system is observed (percolation scenario).
