“American time has
stretched around the world. It has become the dominant tempo of modern
history, especially of the history of Europe.” Harold
Rosenberg
Modern History
The modern times has
entered the 21st century with spectacular achievements and dreadful wars,
famines, genocides and environmental problems. We have conquered many
diseases, developed sophisticated technology, been to the moon, improved
food supplies, advanced transportation systems and generally made life
better for billions of people. However this past century has had it's
problems seen two world wars, one cold war, many small wars, terror
wars, insurgencies, depressions, poverty, slavery, drugs, famines,
droughts, genocide, storms, pollution, global warming, nuclear threats,
epidemics, dictators, and a disarray in the world's political systems.
There is hope since man seems to be at his best when things are at their worst.
