Unfinished business of the 20th century

Summary: The effort to achieve social development goals is part of a historic struggle to restructure societies in the interests of the many rather the few. Only in this century has that ideal begun to make significant practical headway. Combined with the continuing increase in worldwide productive capacity that began with the industrial revolution, this change in the underlying social ethic has made it possible to put the basic benefits of progress at the disposal of all. Completing this revolution is the unfinished business of the 20th century.

Sustainable Development Goals:

Quality Education

Reduced Inequalities
