Why Were Hopes of the 1990s Dashed? for 02/14/2025

As one who shared the hope, after the fall of the Berlin Wall in November 1989, that representative government, guaranteed liberties and global capitalism laced with some measure of welfare state protections would spread across the globe,
The article from MSN, titled "Why Were Hopes of the 1990s Dashed for 02-14-2025," reflects on the optimistic outlook of the 1990s, a decade marked by the end of the Cold War, economic prosperity, and technological advancements like the internet. It discusses how the era was characterized by a belief in the potential for global peace, economic growth, and technological progress to solve many of the world's problems. However, the article points out that these hopes were not fully realized due to several factors including the rise of terrorism, economic disparities, political polarization, and unforeseen technological challenges like cybersecurity threats and privacy issues. It examines how these elements contributed to a more complex and often darker reality by the year 2025, contrasting sharply with the expectations set in the '90s. The piece also touches on how globalization, while increasing connectivity, also led to cultural clashes and economic inequalities, further complicating the optimistic visions of the past.
