The twentieth century has witnessed the blossoming of Western
culture: new technology; communications and transportation systems;
social, political, educational, agricultural, and medical advances.
But with these changes have come the strains and tensions of
conflicting interests, desires, and values within the community.
John Dewey, one of America's most prolific writers of popular
philosophy, believed that humankind could keep a firm hold on its
destiny only if the critical intelligence of scientific method and
its democratic counterpart were emphasized and promoted. Freedom of
inquiry, tolerance of diverse ideas and opinions, cultural
pluralism, free speech, and a willingness to cooperate in pursuit
of shared values and ideals would be the springboard for social
development.
