Reading Comprehension Task

The premise of affluent nations' de-development is that they

use too many resources, putting the world and society at risk
since we are growing too many people and the planet can no
longer support us. And, according to Hickel, economic
development is no longer a viable option.

The distinction between the two frameworks is that the de-development framework
focuses on ensuring that people live long, healthy, pleased, and happy lives regardless of
their socioeconomic status (lower, medium, or upper). Even if our planet is
overpopulated, the conventional paradigm of development seeks greater economic
expansion to improve our lives. This has a negative consequence. For me, it's like
individuals who aren't satisfied with what they have and are looking for something
better. It's OK to want more, even greater economic opportunities, but we must keep in
mind that our planet is overcrowded.

Affluent nations may de-develop, according to Hickel, by

lowering their resource use and thinking of methods to get
rich countries to catch up to the level of development by
living effectively and cheerfully.
Reading Comprehension Task

It is because the commentators used such expressions, which

have a bad influence on the country's growth. These words,
according to Hickel, are theoretically correct, but they irritate
some people who aren't familiar with them. And it's as if he's
telling people to stop learning and growing, and to stop
striving for happiness.

Hickel emphasized this by telling us that it is not about giving

up things, but rather about improving our lives and obtaining
a greater degree of awareness and consciousness. We must
analyze and modify lifestyles and consumption, particularly
those of poor countries.

 Documentary Analysis

C.S Lewis was not opposed to science per se, but he was opposed to the
concept of scientism, which claims to be the only correct source of
information and knowledge in all subjects, but which he regards as
wicked, perverted, and harmful. C.S. Lewis is opposed to science being
glorified because it distorts the objective of science and the scientists
involved.

For some who do not believe in God, science might be

viewed as a religion. Because it provides a point of view
and rationale in life, science may also serve as a substitute
for religion.

He claims Is their promotion of a lack of skepticism. Many individuals may

find this strange, yet scientific skeptics or those who hold opposing
viewpoints are mocked as "global warming deniers," "flat-Earthers," and
are often refused tenure as academics. People will believe nearly anything
if it is dressed up in the name of science, as Lewis pointed out in the
modern world.

Science, according to C.S Lewis, is analogous to magic, yet

something makes science scary. This is the truth that
science has the ability to take control of the entire globe.
Science is also seeking to usher in a new era in which
science is seen as a "science utopia (salvator)."
Documentary Analysis

Modern science, according to C.S Lewis, is more dangerous

than magic because science is real, whilst magic is not. C.S
Lewis believes that science may be utilized to conquer and
dominate the world.

C.S. Lewis opposes scientism because he believes it will lead to

scientocracy. He was both alarmed and troubled by this notion since in
scientocracy, your thoughts and opinions are irrelevant unless you are a
journalist, statistician, or statistician who supports scientific information.
Finally, scientocracy obscures the substance of human existence and its
genuine goal, rendering us oblivious to the truth we must pursue, which is
pleasure.

The Magician Twin documentary film portrays scientists as having the

capacity to endanger a human being who thrives on science and
technology. Science, according to C.S Lewis, is more dangerous than magic
since magic does not exist, but science does. Why scientism is hazardous to
humanity, in my opinion, is because it seeks power, poisons our minds,
and blinds us to the core of existence. The ethical rule is necessary in
research in order to get the most out of scientific study since it will show us
what is right and wrong. Respect for human rights and the preservation of
human life are also priorities.
