Produktbeschreibung
In our modern American society, we find ourselves amidst a disheartening breakdown, where chaos prevails. The dominance of a few corporations stifles diversity across numerous sectors of our economy. Complex and biased laws and tax systems cater to special interests, while the upbringing of many children and the quality of education are skewed towards wealthy areas. Moreover, our online platforms inundate us with fraudulent schemes, adding to the societal disarray.This thought-provoking book offers a fresh perspective on historical change, presenting the idea that the Western world has undergone three distinct civilizations: the Greco-Roman, the Medieval, and the Enlightenment. With the passing of each civilization, we have witnessed a gradual deterioration of institutions and the erosion of social consensus. Examining the challenges we face today, the book delves into the concept of 'Justice' and questions what truly constitutes a fair society. It then presents a range of potential improvements to our current institutions, serving as a temporary measure until a new civilization emerges. Additionally, the book explores America's place in the global context and delves into the complexities faced by other civilizations experiencing their own periods of institutional breakdown.By offering a critical analysis of our present state and proposing alternative perspectives, this book provides a guiding light for navigating the turbulent waters of societal transformation. It inspires hope for a future where our institutions can be reimagined, fostering a more just and harmonious society.

Autorenporträt
After Roger Cole graduated from Brown University in 1962, he began his career with the U.S. Public Health Service. His primary responsibility was to forecast health care demand twenty to thirty years ahead to support the building of new health professions schools to meet future requirements. He also created and developed the Area Resource File [ARF], a database of about 6,000 variables for every county in the U.S., to support the designation of health professions shortage areas. The ARF is now used and supported by over a dozen agencies and departments.
