Summary

This quote suggests that prior to World War II, life was uncomplicated and straightforward. However, following the war, various systems and structures were introduced to cope with the post-war challenges. These systems, which could refer to economic, political, and social frameworks, were implemented to bring order and stability to society amidst the aftermath of the conflict. The quote implies that the complexities of the war forced the world to adopt new systems to navigate and rebuild in a drastically changed global landscape.
