Much like PWEI (look it up) suggests, shitty pop culture and the 24hr news cycle does not encourage an informed perspective on history. In one sense we* are encouraged to elevate novelty and put the nonsensical hyper- before otherwise useful words. Also we can find ourselves subject to the whims of richer older (mostly) men who, elected or otherwise, would tie us down in their recieved view of how the world works, and what is best for us all. So when the wind rips down the chasm that separates progression and tradition and chills us to the bone, what are we to do?
We use our critical faculties, we might look for progression and new ideas from those who have a sense of history, as novelty for its own sake quickly becomes tiresome. We also may benefit from considering what has gone before in terms of practical outcomes and apply this knowledge ourselves. Here are two of the most interesting articles I have read lately, that suggest or describe the employment of similar strategies, but may not be what you expect. I suggest you print 'em as they deserve attention. Endorsement or disagreements might be forthcoming upon request.
