Integral pipe dream

I was wondering as we see the devolution of so much of the modern period’s industrial capacity, would we see a devolution in major modes of thinking. It takes some historical perspective to see the modern thought, capitalist modes of production were actually an ADVANCE over tribal and feudal/aristocratic/autocratic modes of thinking and organizing. Future historians may note that there was one brief period between 1965 and 2015 when the modern/capitalist/individualist modes of thinking could have reached a new level post-postmodern/sustainable/integrated of thinking and producing, but failed to do so.

Or was that just my own pipe dream?
