Abstract

Today’s cultural imagination has little room for the idea of the history-making potential of humanity. On the contrary there has been a fundamental shift towards a world view where people are almost entirely written out of history. There has never been a time since the Middle Ages where the human species has been accorded such an insignificant status in the making of history
