ISSUE #7
What
makes history? Politics with its endless devastating wars? Science with
its rare really worthwhile discoveries and inventions? The arts that
portray the contemporaries for future generations? Or maybe economics
with its sudden unexpected crises and defaults?
I suppose it’s better to rephrase the question - Who makes history and shapes the world?
Greedy
politicians pursuing their enormous ambitions and seeking power by all
means and thus causing armed ethnic conflicts, riots and "yellow
revolutions” all over the world? Or "romantic” ones who still believe
in utopian ideas of Freedom, Equality and Brotherhood on Earth?
Who
will make a greater impact on mankind - scientists who develop drugs
and bombs or their peers spending long hours in the laboratories trying
to find a cure for cancer?
Who
makes a difference? Mainstream painters, movie makers, composers and
photographers who are so-to-say "looking for new ways” of expressions
and impressions or those who just create Art no matter how much money
they would get for that.
Can we, ordinary people, change the world to be better. How?
Frankly,
I have no answers. I hope this HighLight issue will shed some light on
what and who people value, appreciate and admire.
So, here we go. The topic of December issue "Big deeds. Big Names. Big changes.”
Yours, Marina Shvets on behalf of Light team
