Not necessarily. It means that we may have very interesting days coming ahead.
On the positive side, it is possible that people have to move back to more traditional ways of life. This shouldn't be easy, however, because traditional societies are much lost nowadays. Countries would have to start to rely more and more on local production, for basic goods. And ethnic conflicts are likely to start at large scale. For the building of traditional societies to be, you need a very homogenous structure of people.
