There are few subject materials so sensitive in the ignorant West than this one. It’s a matter that touches on many major fundamental questions about individuals and society alike.

Technocracy: Citizenship
There is in most modern Westerner’s minds a dissonance when it comes to the matter of citizenship and participation in the nation’s inner workings.
