Increasing complexity: mythistory, colombus and the war against the indians. After the 2nd world war, we lived in a bipolar world. Prof bell in 1960 wrote a book called the end of ideology which was very influential. By 1960 according to bell, we had sorted out these things that marx and hobbes and locke and rousseau were all talking about. The free world had a monopoly on this common sense. The communists were still prisoners of ideology according to bell. The soviets created a prob for academics in the western world.
