The Civilization of Illiteracy Genetic continuity is a background for pragmatic discontinuity. The Civilization of Illiteracy One of the major hypotheses of this book is that discontinuities, also described in dynamic systems theory as phase shifts, occur as scale changes. The Civilization of Illiteracy But this is also why, when the scale changes, we have to deal with discontinuity and avoid misleading translations in the language of the past. The Civilization of Illiteracy But there is a definite discontinuity between what constituted the relatively stable underlying structure of literacy and what constitutes the fast-changing underlying structure of the pragmatic framework. The Civilization of Illiteracy Some of these are no longer evolutionary, but revolutionary, and mark discontinuities. The Civilization of Illiteracy As discussions continue to bring up extremely important aspects of the conflict marking this time of discontinuity, the billions of people populating our world today constitute themselves through a broad variety of practical experiences. The Civilization of Illiteracy It seems that the transition is from the small communal life striving for continuity and permanence, to a global community of interacting individuals, whose identity itself is variable, prepared to experience discontinuity and change.
