There is no end of history. Utopia is not a destination. The author is talking about transcending our scarcity mentality -- a state that is far closer than we realize -- and the recognition that we cannot compete and self maximize our way to peace and prosperity. We are, as David Deutsch has said, at the beginning of infinity in terms of human explanations and problem solving. A new story of collaboration and abundance that uses markets to allocate resources, builds on self-interest to sustain and continue progress, provides basic survival necessities, and frees all of humanity to follow their gifts and make their dent in the universe -- that is the infinite engine of human progress that we can and must build.
