Q) Is our modern world more peaceful than the past? Can we think of some examples - or contradictaions?
Not necessarily. First of all, the number of wars has been reduced compared to the past, but the destructive power has increased much more. This is because the development of science and technology has made the lethal force of war weapons dangerously unprecedented. There are also invisible threats. What was not there before, such as the development of nuclear weapons, has also created fears that have not existed in the past. In terms of improving the political form and quality of life, it can be said that people's dissatififaction has decreased compared to the past, but it can not be concluded that it is peaceful.
