Name: The End of the West
ID: m15564
Language: English (en)
Summary: The prime challenge of our times is that we have created a global economy that is unmediated by a global polity, and lack the normative underpinnings that would sustain such a polity. We have also passed the peak of the Western, post-Cartesian paradigm that has shaped the world since the end of the 18th century. The next hundred years will not be made solely in the Western image. We are reverting, as often in the past, to a search for new reference points that will allow us to share the earth.
