 Re: Grammatical relations
Happy new Year, Ian.
I am a little lost as to what exactly the problem is.
If you bracket the phrases as below, it is a list of different extremes. The extreme forces of globalism, WMD, and religious terrorism seem to me to be contained and linked. It is always possible for others to interpret the passage differently - this is my interpretation.
...[extremes in wealth and poverty], [extremes in technology and the experiments that scientists want to perform], [extreme forces of globalism, weapons of mass destruction and terrorists acting in the name of religion]. If we are to survive, we have to learn how to manage this situation." |
