Ananda K. Coomaraswamy explores the profound impact of industrialization on society, emphasizing how it undermines traditional craftsmanship and the role of the artist. He argues that the relentless pursuit of quantity over quality in production diminishes the spiritual essence of art and leads to societal discontent. This transformation not only erodes cultural values but also fosters fear and resentment towards Western nations, highlighting a deeper spiritual crisis beyond mere political or economic factors.
