“ ”El entusiasmo por el «progreso» es un fenómeno particular de la forma moderna de sociedad, y parece no haber existido antes del siglo XVII, más o menos.
211. En la última parte de la Edad Media, había cuatro civilizaciones importantes que estaban igualmente «avanzadas»: Europa, el mundo islámico, India, y el Lejano Oriente (China, Japón, Corea). Tres de estas civilizaciones permanecieron más o menos estables y sólo Europa se dinamizó. Nadie sabe porque Europa lo hizo en este periodo, los historiadores tienen sus teorías, pero sólo son especulaciones. De todas formas, está claro que el desarrollo rápido hacia una forma tecnológica de la sociedad sólo ocurre bajo condiciones especiales.
About Theodore Kaczynski
Theodore John Kaczynski, also known as the Unabomber (May 22, 1942 – June 10, 2023) was an American terrorist and former mathematics professor. After leaving modern society in 1971, between 1978 and 1995, Kaczynski killed three people and injured 23 others in a nationwide mail bombing campaign against people he believed to be advancing modern technology and the destruction of the environment. He authored Industrial Society and Its Future, a 35,000-word manifesto and social critique opposing industrialization, rejecting leftism, and advocating for a nature-centered form of anarchism. After promising to desist from terrorism in a letter sent to The New York Times if his manifesto was published by the Times or The Washington Post, it appeared in the latter in September 1995, leading to his identification and capture. Following the FBI's most expensive manhunt in its history, he pleaded guilty to all charges in 1998 and was sentenced to eight consecutive life terms in prison without the possibility of parole.
