The shift from local solidarity to global community is reflected in the increasing connection with people farther away who share intellectual interests, while having less contact with those farther away who do not. In the past, church gatherings served as a social norm that brought different segments of society together, fostering a sense of obligation and solidarity. However, this has been substituted with a belief in a global community, leading to a diminished sense of obligation and loyalty to those nearby. As a result, some parts of society feel neglected and have experienced a populist backlash, particularly those who are more dependent on local interactions but are disregarded by the intellectuals and professionals with advanced expertise.
