Abstract
The character of our American society has changed slowly over the past 50 to 100 years, but peoples' aspirations, both in the United States and abroad, have changed abruptly in just the last 5 to 10 years and are still constantly changing. We haven't seen anything yet; mankind's aspirations are going to soar to new heights. Furthermore, technology provides the power with which society can meet these new, higher aspirations, if we but put our minds to it. Whether we can, in 5 years, or 50, or 100, attain such social goals as eliminating poverty, disease, and ignorance from the United States and spreading literacy, freedom, and governmental stability throughout the now less-developed areas of the world rests chiefly on social decisions. These social decisions must be made soon. To make them intelligently- in fact, to make any decisions at all-will require new patterns of industry-government partnership.
