Many events in Europe since 1980 that resulted in the fall of the Berlin Wall were instrumen-tal for the fourth major turn in European and global history since 1789. It was not triggered by revolutions and not by wars, that resulted in the international orders of Vienna, Versailles, and Yalta. While this fourth turn was the first peaceful global change in human history, the aftermath was not. The wars in Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union resulted in a process of frag-mentation and dissolution, and the turn contributed to “failed states”, e.g. in Somalia. Intelli-gence specialists and scholars of different worldviews did not foresee this major peaceful change in global and regional orders. They also misdiagnosed several violent consequences. But before I deal with the recent past and presence, let me get back to the impact of contextual change and conceptual innovation had on the founding fathers of the three worldviews.
