I proceed on my line of thinking that it is structural until someone points to me. We are just now cleaning the ash trays and the empty bottles of the party. We have been living through the WWII aftermath. A long period when all societal, geo-political, technological developments of that era were diggested and exhausted one by one. The interconnectedness of all the major drivers, societal, geo-political, technological developments across the whole world was magnificent. The power that it had to transform countries and people is something that was not envisaged as possible by the great minds of the past, who were proved wrong one by one. Malthus, Marx, Weber... all the truths they established were proved to be relative truths. Destroyed by the power of the major societal, geo-political, technological developments. Now the world needs to find a new set of major drivers to move ahead. Out of the past ones we can no longer extract an output. From where it will come, I don't know. But we have a track record in producing new major drivers, and surely will produce a new set of drivers that create new set of circumstances that move us along.
