For Assignment #6, you are to watch Steven Pinker's Ted Talk (Links to an external site.)

 and write essay that address the following:

  • Do you agree that humans are significantly less violent now than we were before? What do you think of the reasons Pinker provides?
  • The world is changing rapidly - it's changed a lot since Pinker's talk in 2007. What kind of effect do you think modern technology/communications, common enemies such as COVID (which doesn't care about politics or borders), and our interdependent global economy have on the expression of violence among humans today?
  • If we indeed are on a trajectory of reducing violence, do you think that complete nonviolence (in the sense of wars and legal punishments, not so much domestic violence and child abuse - that's a whole other topic) is possible in the future? How do you think that might be accomplished?
  • Re: his final comment - what do YOU think we (humans) are doing rightjQuery22407851617808754614_1595536859196
