There is little more than a decade left before the bells allover
the world will be ringing in the first hour of the twenty-first
century, which will surely be an era of highly advanced technology.
Looking back on the century that we live in, one can realize that
generations of people who have already lived in it for the better
parts of their lives have begun to ask the same question that also
every individual person thinks about when he is faced with the
first signs of the end of his life. It is the question: "Why did
everything in my life happen the way it did?" Or, "It would have
been so easy to have channelled events into directions other than
the way they went. " Or, "Why, in all the world, is my life coming
to an end as it does, or, why must all of us face this kind of end
of our century?" Whenever human beings take retrospective views of
their lives and times - when they are faced with their own personal
"fin du siecle" - there appears to be an increasing anxiety
throughout the masses asso ciated with a somber feeling of
pessimism, which may even be mixed with a slight degree of
fatalism. There is quite another feeling with those persons who
were born late in this century and who did not share all the events
the older generation experi enced."
