It is rare that we feel ourselves to be participating in history.
Yet, as Bertrand Russell observed, philosophy develops in response
to the challenges of socio-cultural problems and situations. The
present-day philosophical endeavor is prompted not by one or two,
but by a conundrum of problems and controversies in which the
forces carrying life are set against each other. The struggles in
which contemporary mankind is fiercely engaged are not confined, as
in the past, to economic, territorial, or religious rivalries, nor
to the quest for power, but extend to the primary conditions of
human existence. They under mine man's primogenital confidence in
life and shatter the intimacy of his home on earth. Philosophical
reflection today cannot fail to feel the pressure of the current
situation within which it unfolds. Since this situation now
involves the ultimate conditions of human existence, its demands
have at last given to philosophy the impetus and direction needed
for conceiving that the first and last of its concerns should be
life itself."
