Title ProperDangers looming ahead
LanguageENG
AuthorFrolov, Andrei
Summary / Abstract (Note)The well-known human needs graphically shown in Maslow's hierarchy of needs should probably be revised to add one more - knowledge of the future. This is necessitated by both existential factors (which make religion eternal) and practical ones (knowledge of the future helps to get prepared for it in advance or turn it to one's profit). The "new normal" has moved from purely theoretical discussions to political discourse at the top official level in Russia, reflecting not only the recognition of accelerating political and economic processes in the world, but also the understanding of their outcome in a span of twenty, thirty or even fifty years.
