''A recent survey
asked “All things considered, do you think the world is getting better
or worse, or neither getting better nor worse?”. In Sweden 10% thought
things are getting better, in the US they were only 6%, and in Germany
only 4%. Very few people think that the world is getting better.
What is the evidence that we need to consider when answering this
question? The question is about how the world has changed and so we must
take a historical perspective. And the question is about the world as a
whole and the answer must therefore consider everybody. The answer must
consider the history of global living conditions – a history of
everyone..''
