			Conclusion
			The outline of the eonic sequence reaches its spectacular conclusion in the nineteenth century leaving us with many issues of ideology and interpretation, from Eurocentrism to imperialism. We take a look at a number of issues, among them Hegel's idea of the 'end of history', globalization, and the confusions of both economic and revolutionary ideology. Our analysis concludes with a clear insight into the limitations of Darwinism applied to world history and the descent of man. We have a theoretical self-defense kit against the false application of selectionist theorizing to historical evolution and can quarantine the study of history from the impositions of the Darwin regime.
