The temporalization of social self-descriptions and the perception of rapid social change presumes above all the distinction between consemative and progressive tendencies. Conservatives begin with disappointment, progressives end with disappointment, but all of them suffer from the times and agree on that much. The crisis becomes general. In the limiting case, the description of society shrivels down to a 'definition of the situation'. Even in the case of unambiguous data, the latter can always be constructed controversially. (Luhmann, 1987a: 167
