TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY SOCIAL EVOLUTIONContact person: Jim Mann, email: jim.mann@social-evolution.org. "Government, business, economics, the family, education, culture, health care, communications, environmental concerns, professional entertainment are among the social phenomena that determine the course of human society, the civilization in which we live. Each of these phenomena, individually and in myriad combinations, has always been evolving. But as knowledge accumulates social evolution accelerates. There were more social changes in the 20th Century than there were in the 19th. And the acceleration of social evolution will result in even more changes -- threatening or promising -- in the century we are now entering." |
