The Limits of Modern Western Science

Summary/Abstract: Education, and above all formal education, has been one of the principle components of modernization and globalization. This is to say that the notion of universal participation in human affairs is by now regarded a necessary condition for national and international relationships and understanding. Without education, as a rational condition, such relationships and understanding are hardly possible.

It is deemed that peoples, whether in the so-called advanced world or the world to be developed, must constantly be judged on the basis of their level of education.
