In view of the facts our society has produced in its bourgeois phase we should be able to calculate the limits of the meaningful extension of time; we should know the social correlates of a high differentiation of temporal horizons; we should be able to antici- pate a change in temporal structures as a consequence of social change-for example, as a consequence of an eventual decline of the monetary mechanism; we should be able to
estimate
the degree of heterogeneity of temporal structures we can tolerate in different subsystems of our society; we should know how the shrinking temporal horizons of families affect the economy, and how we can avoid the well known negative impact which the time perspectives of a growing economy have on the political system; 47 and, last but
not least, we should know what is implied if we rely on clocks and dates to integrate the different time perspectives of different sectors of the society and what dysfunctional consequences we have to expect if we use chronology to fulfill this important function.

I then with the rest of my men, also five and twenty strong (for Skintharus and his son fought with us), marched forward to oppose them ; and when we had come to close quarters, we fought with such bravery and

that after an obstinate struggle, not without danger on our part, they were at last beat out of the field, and pursued to their dens.

27 La gran transformación inmunológica
En camino a las sociedades de paredes finas
De la ruidosa monotonía de la actual literatura sociológica y po
lítica sobre la globalización pueden abstraerse algunos patrones que
tienen buenas perspectivas de convertirse para los próximos siglos
en algo así como temas eternos o universales periodísticos: por una

gar, que el mundo globalizado entra política y moralmente en ten
sión por la diferencia cada vez más llamativa entre pobres y ricos; y
en cuarto lugar, que el agotamiento progresivo de la biosfera y los
requerimientos excesivos que se hacen al agua, aire y suelos con
vierten nolens volens a «la humanidad» en una comunidad ecológica
de intereses de cuyo buen sentido y diálogo ha de surgir una nueva
cultura racional que tenga en consideración las repercusiones futu
