- Evolution manifests itself along two axes of human learning:
1) An instrumental logic of learning how to find efficient (or successful) ways of producing and administering one's existence;
• 2) Increased potential for reflexive action in a rationalized lifeworld bound together through communicative processes. Increased reflexivity means that with the advent of modernity traditions are constantly questioned and revised. In all of his work, Habermas argues that the lifeworld is the source of human activity, connectedness and meaningfulness.

• - Idealism is very impractical in today's world. Idealists are basically dreamers, who only look for a paragon and that too in the future. Since they are out of touch with reality, they are most liable to fail. Realists, on the other hand, are more grounded in reality and are better prepared to deal with the world around them.
