The desperation that the humanity experienced after the massacre and absurdity of World War One was stopped by the Bolshevik revolution of 1917, the leader of the Essence of Time movement, philosopher, political scientist and theater director Sergey Kurginyan said on January 8 on the program ObyektivNO on the Belarusian ONT channel.
According to the political scientist, many of the fundamental structures established in late 1980s and early 1990s have been discredited, which is very reminiscent of the period before World War One.
“If we close our eyes and think about all the many things that have failed after the beginning of the Special Military Operation we will see that in fact we live in a situation when almost all the fundamental structures that governed everything since late 1980s are failing,” Kurginyan said.
The analyst noted that at the beginning of World War One the globalization process reached a level when the degree of the division of labor and global cooperation were believed to be high enough to prevent any war, and when everyone seemed to be reasonable enough not to start a global massacre, and when the overall situation was what we called “you are moving the right way, comrades” towards a kind of well-being.
“And when the convulsion of World War One began among all that well-being, the fields of Europe became covered with dead bodies, and the terror of chemical war emerged near the Belgian town of Ypres and elsewhere, after which even Nazis did not dare to use chemical weapons. This was a feeling of a global massacre and global absurdity. The world fell into despair, and then it was the Bolshevik revolution – and this must be admitted – that stopped this despair,” the philosopher concluded.
