“It is not clear to anyone, least of all the practitioners, how science and technology in their headlong course do or should influence ethics and law, education and government, art and social philosophy, religion and the life of the affections. Yet science is an all-pervasive energy, for it is at once a mode of thought, a source of strong emotion, and a faith as fanatical as any in history.” ShouldArtPhilosophyGovernmentLawScienceCoursesEnergyStrongSocialEmotionTechnologyClearInfluenceSourceEthicsAccountsAffectionScience And TechnologyStrong Emotions Author:Jacques Barzun
“The solutions put forth by imperialism are the quintessence of simplicity...When they speak of the problems of population and birth, they are in no way moved by concepts related to the interests of the family or of society...Just when science and technology are making incredible advances in all fields, they resort to technology to suppress revolutions and ask the help of science to prevent population growth. In short, the peoples are not to make revolutions, and women are not to give birth. This sums up the philosophy of imperialism.” WayGivingPhilosophyHelpingProblemScienceAsksSpeakGrowthInterestTechnologyFieldsRevolutionBirthSolutionsConceptsAccountsMovedIncrediblesSimplicityPopulationRelatedImperialismResortsScience And TechnologyPopulation GrowthQuintessence Author:Fidel Castro

“[To the cultures of Asia and the continent of Africa] it is the Western impact which has stirred up the winds of change and set the processes of modernization in motion. Education brought not only the idea of equality but also another belief which we used to take for granted in the West-the idea of progress, the idea that science and technology can be used to better human conditions. In ancient society, men tended to believe themselves fortunate if tomorrow was not worse than today and anyway, there was little they could do about it.” IfsMenBelieveHumansLittlesIdeasTodayScienceUsedCultureBeliefProcessTechnologyProgressConditionsWindTomorrowAccountsImpactWestWesternAncientGrantedFortunateHuman ConditionContinentsAsiaScience And TechnologyModernizationWinds Of Change Author:Barbara Ward, Baroness Jackson of Lodsworth
