T3 Thoughts: End of History
When should history end? The End of any thing an idea thought or journey is final. The ultimate objective is achieved or it is not achieved and rendered impossible to achieve. So if we are to contemplate the end of history we must decide the objective of history itself. History is to help us learn from the past , to help us develop our own identity. So if there comes a moment when world history ends it will be when everyone is secure in their own identity and require nothing to change, when the human race has learnt all that there is to learn. Since currently I cannot imagine a moment like that arriving anytime soon I believe the end of history is a long way off. As for scholastic interpretation, the end of history should remain 30-40 years in the past from the current day so as to ensure objectivity and distance when dealing with it.
