Counter-evolution as a sign of global crisis of modern world

Our magazine is starting publication of a series of new articles by Professor Andrei Anatol'evich Pelipenko devoted to the global crisis of the modern world. In this sense, the author continues and deepens coverage of the issues raised in his previous book «The Global Crisis and the Problem of the West». He is still focusing on the problem of the substantial cultural and civilizational system crisis of the West. The crisis was first observed in the history as a crisis of individualistic society that destroyed the deepest foundations of culture. Consequences of withdrawal of the West from a historical scene are undervalued. The author suggests that the way to changes that could lead away from the worst outcomes lies in the rejection of the myths that have been discussed in detail in the article.
