Historical Amnesia - Why Civilizations Forget — and Pay the Price Again
The Third Horizon by John Fine
Episode notes
In this episode of The Third Horizon, we
examine historical amnesia — the tendency of civilizations to forget hard-earned lessons and repeat costly mistakes. From ancient Rome to modern institutions, this conversation explores how urgency replaces memory, how restraint fades under pressure, and why forgetting the past quietly shapes the future. This episode asks what responsibility looks like when history is ignored — and why memory remains essential for any civilization that hopes to endure.
