Collusions deceive not only the immediate participants, but also the historians who seek to study the participants. Mutual self deception involves leaving few, if any, objective clues regarding the deception. Historical research tends to depend very heavily upon objective evidence, subjective evidence being hard to obtain in any meaningful way. Collusions pertain very much to subjective states states of consciousness, even though they may relate to objective situations. For these reasons, historic collusions may pass undetected in a significant number of cases. When historic collusions do pass undetected, the lessons learned from the study of history become flawed. The violence occasioned by the undetected collusions will not be perceived in relation to the collusions which occasioned the violence. Thus, the potential lesson of the historic period may be missed. Attempts to uncover evidence of historic collusions will need to seek indirect evidence; e.g., noting questions not asked, situations not discussed, opportunities not taken, relationships not perceived, combinations not made, etc. Absences are not as readily noted as are presences. To note collusive absences the historian must be free of the collusion. The historian who specializes in a limited time/region runs the risk of becoming so identified with the perspectives of that time/region as to be unable to perceive the absences which point to the collusions of the historic era. Historical specialization can thus undermine sensitivity to the lessons of history. For the above reasons transcendence of specialization with respect to discipline, time, region, etc. are essential to gaining meaningful insights through the consideration of historic processes.
