I like when you're reading a book (in this case Robert Kaplan's Waste Land) and he's just casually dropping Pieter Bruegel the Elder's, “The Fight Between Carnival and Lent” from 1559. As you do.

“In an extended era of domestic peace, government institutions appear less vital because national security is assumed, and the memory of it being directly challenged has faded. Less sacrosanct than ever, government institutions become easier to attack, especially as, with thousands of employees making tens of thousands of daily decisions, corruption at some level must always occur in a nontyrannical regime. Too many ambitious, outside experts and too much information must eventually undermine institutions, since bureaucracies—composed as they are by ordinary people who aren't well paid—require a reasonable berth of error merely to function. Because information as it is disseminated to a large and imperfectly educated audience becomes vulgarized, the media—and well-heeled pressure groups with access to it—will increasingly create mass hysteria over single issues by the crude dispersion of facts untempered by context. Whereas war leads to a respect for large, progressive government, peace creates an institutional void filled by, among other things, entertainment-oriented corporations. True peace would show just how serious the questions of the existentialists really are. Contrary to what some may think, existentialism is more than a European intellectual affectation. It addresses the search for meaning in existence at a time when no such search appears necessary, because existence has never been threatened in anyone's living memory.” - Robert D. Kaplan, ‘The Coming Anarchy’ (2000) [p. 174, 175]
