| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Earlier the world as a whole was a conflict -zone. People living in a particular region had norms and morality which served them well. But that morality was at the cost of people living in other regions because of conflicts between them. So, that morality involved inhumanity towards those living outside their regions. Now due to growth of science, industry and technology, the world seems to be coming closer to all; the unfamiliarity that prevailed earlier between people of different regions is diminishing and familiarity is growing. People around the globe are becoming aware of this. innumerable institutions that are taking shape are spreading the awareness about the inadequacy of old thinking, ideas and morals. Take Europe for instance. Different regions or countries of Europe were indulging in prolonged wars with each other. This, after the Second World War, changed. They realized the futility of it all, and established various institutions like the European Union. Thus reducing and extinguishing the con?icts between them, leading thereby not only to a prolonged period of peace but to unheard of prosperity. |
