Chapter 4. Where are we? A deeper look. What is behind the rough politics and the sickness of Covid and an afflicted environment? Marc Block writes that history is about “humanin beings in time”. We humans expected that growth focused on the economy was going to provide us with a well provided consumer paradise. The expected growth was going to provide us with a future, but with that growth we have used the internet to coordinate the world, but not change it for the better. Millions were lifted out of poverty into high rises and detachment from the earth and community. We have been living in a world where our focus is on the material, and we have lost touch with the psychological, the expressive, the world of feelings and intuition.. But we seem to be entering a new phase, where digitalization shifts us from the material to the psychological, the mental, the realm of ideas. The mind has been treated as an artifact of matter, but as we live into the digital period, where digital seems more mind-like than material-like, our emerging age is already more psychological, nore mind based, less materialistic. This is a huge shift.
