An objective observer is attracted to scientific terms and phraseologies. Any generic observation in sociology can attest to the fact that humans are by and large organisms of typological exclusivity. In other words, the earnestness of human development demands certain exclusion from an aggregated norm of sorts. Civilization is made possible through paradigms of applied assimilationism; yet, that is something weighed in degreed incrementalism which is ultimately localized to the immediacy of our inhibited environments. Therefore, it is commonly believed that civilization is characteristically defined by the empiricism of its environmental reality, but that is only one fragment of it.

Omar Alansari-Kreger The nationalism of today is the tribalism of yesterday. In our world of utilitarian modernity, we continue to struggle with ancient problems that were resolved centuries ago; yet, we voraciously boast of conquering the known limits of our humanity! What has been the cost of those triumphs? Have we increased the stock of our humanity or are we losing it? The subjection of material aesthetics must be implicated in the devolution of human decency, intellect, and morality. Our world is saturated with the ubiquity of information yet we complain about boredom. How is the passivity of boredom possible with the finitude of time? Vanity has consumed us in ways where we share it with each other effortlessly and universally. That development is subjectively unprecedented to the story of the human condition. No one knows or cares to know anymore. That has condemned the modern lot of the world to a universe of apathetic lethargy. From there, the masses are defined by the mindlessness of their motionlessness and vice versa. An appreciation of history is also an appreciation of the human condition. Although, despite our sincerest efforts, nothing can derail the process of inevitability through the passage of time. Certain things are bound to happen and there is nothing we can do to avert such things. The materialization of humanity has condemned its civilization to the likes of a superficial serfdom. A world where anything and everything can be deemed as socially acceptable. The deprecation of the human condition mirrors the collective degeneracy of civilization. In one way or another, we are all responsible which is why each person has a role to play in its rekindling. Civilization, in all of its comprehensive decency, is indeed a lost heritage of humankind. The hegemony of human individuality robs us of our humanity which leads to the putrid subjection of its materiality. By definition, civilization draws us into the world of thematic propositions. By and large, the only true reality we appreciate is one that responds to our constructed inhibition. It takes considerable effort to arouse interest in some of the most generic forms of history. There is this factor of existential exceptionalism that demands exclusivity on grounds that struggles endured yesterday are not the same as those endured today. Events that define the horizons of their time signify the differential happenstances of a shared reality. A nation acquires its identity through a shared history; the essence of which is not always derived from the machinations of nationalism. Time again, the recalibration of civilization is derived from our shared ability to define the idea of the human condition. Is it to be treated as a nuance? Is it to be developed into a paradigm? Is it pre-destined to serve parochial traditions? In one way or another, a civilization is incubated by its sociological isolation from the rest of the world. Ethnocentrism reborn with a vengeance entertains some of the worst diabolical propositions imaginable. When revenge becomes ideologically sanctioned into the mainstream, semi-organized gangs of ethnocentrists transform into ultra-nationalists that go on to commit atrocities without the slightest afterthought. To restore civilization, it becomes necessary to revisit its underlying foundationalism; the latter is
overwhelmingly shrouded in vicissitudes of ambiguity. As a direct implication, we encounter
inconvenient truths which undermine sociological systems established on ideological preconditioning. The notional civilization, similar to the nuanced nation, is based on the precipice of an idea; the basis of which is seldom understood by the same groups of people that proclaim to be its most voracious proponents. Ideas last forever, but cultures, of all ideological variations, are ephemerally incubated by the finitude of time.
