The function of a society is to produce meaning - to come up with the trends, fashions, myths and agendas that people can collectively believe in. It's too bad that so much of the meaning we have been producing in the affluent West is toxic to ourselves and to other cultures that decide--with a considerable degree of coercion--to go along for the ride.
