PROMPT: Which specific Enlightenment-era ideals and/or methods of exchange* do we still use, and what aspects have been altered or discarded altogether? Has this been for the better or the worse, and why? In terms of the past and the present, how much of an influence did/does consumerism play in both the methods of exchange and the free-flow of ideas?
