THE WORLD IN CRISIS

“The World in Crisis” describes the period of transition that the world is now entering, as we experience the last days of the era known to historians as the “Modern Period”, which itself came into existence in Western Europe in the 16th century.

The crisis that we are starting to experience is not a normal transition from one economic era to another. This crisis represents a change to everything we have known, a challenge to all our values and certainties, both the best and worst of times, as humans both rise to the greatest challenge in our history and show how badly they respond to famine, drought and conflict. The survivors of this crisis will live in a society profoundly scarred by the memories of the horrors of the transition and by a total rejection of the values which caused the crisis. The Change will mark one type of human society from another
