"We all thought this can be contained within the humanities."
<- Apart from those of us who studied climate change, and found that scientists had sold out to TPTB. So NO - it could not be contained.
I'm fascinated by this discussion on the counter-enlightenment because I think many people countering the counter-enlightenment; AKA: progressives, conservatives and even liberals are, for me, part of this counter-enlightenment!
Here is a quote from a self-styled critic of the counter-enlightenment:
"With increased freedom and mobility, the spread of literacy, the decline in infant mortality, the pro longation of human life and the alleviation of physical suffering through modern medicine have come a potentially catastrophic degradation of the natural environment, the depletion of vital and irreplaceable natural resources, the advent of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons, and the dystopic possibilities of genetic engineering."
