Is the Twenty-First Century Just a Suspension of What Was Already in Place?

i wonder how much you think that cashes out, or or r actually affects people's dispositions toward it in any sort of significant way. I mean, i'm, i confess i'm somewhat, well, i won't say skeptical. And even significant, severe disruptions like world wars a, don't actually substantively affect things as much as people think. The question would be, to what extent does the newness of things prepare the soil for people to behave differently?
