Darwin was the necessary element of scientific-minded people who challenged traditional thinking of europe. Role of science: very claer in minds of europeans dating back to descartes, galileo. Those who offered parallels b/w science and himan condition --> different definition of what it is to be human and how that fits into civil and economic society. Transition of power => technology supported this. Frame of reference of european minds -- provded basis to how to solve problems. - became part of euro mentality, part of way they operated. Rejecting principles of modern science = rejecting modernity.
