- Idea_of_Progress abstract "In historiography, the Idea of Progress is the theory that advances in technology, science, and social organization can produce an improvement in the human condition. That is, people can become happier in terms of quality of life (social progress) through economic development (modernization), and the application of science and technology (scientific progress). The assumption is that the process will happen once people apply their reason and skills, for it is not divinely foreordained. The role of the expert is to identify hindrances that slow or neutralize progress.The Idea of Progress emerged primarily in the Enlightenment in the 18th century. Significant movements in this period were Diderot's Encyclopedia, which carried on the campaign against authority and superstition, and the French Revolution.Some scholars consider the idea of progress that was affirmed with the Enlightenment, as a secularization of ideas from early Christianity, and a reworking of ideas from ancient Greece. Darwin's (1809-82) theory of evolution by natural selection made progress a necessary law of nature and gave the doctrine its first scientific formulation. The idea was challenged by many in the 20th century who argued that technological progress could lead to large-scale destruction, as seen in World War I and World War II, and run counter the basic premise of the Idea of Progress. It remains a matter of debate among intellectuals.".
