What if things turn out OK? Designing the future. With Florence Gaub and Harald Welzer
Leider hat die Politologin Florence Gaub ihre Teilnahme an der Veranstaltung aus terminlichen Gründen absagen müssen. Wir freuen uns aber sehr, dass wir die Kunsthistorikerin Franziska Nori kurzfristig für das Gespräch gewinnen konnten.
Rarely has tomorrow been as uncertain as it is today: War, climate, polycrises. Hardly anyone is optimistic. "Humans are the beings who have the ability to imagine the future in such detail that they can create it," says futurologist Florence Gaub (Zukunft. Eine Bedienungsanleitung). Drawing on findings from neuroscience, psychology and philosophy, she shows how we imagine the "future" and create it in reality. Because right now, we are in danger of losing our faith in our own power to shape our lives.
Social psychologist Harald Welzer ("Alles könnte anders sein") also strives to look constructively to the future. For him, one thing is certain: the world is there to be changed, not merely endured. A dialogue about the potential for positive narratives and opening up spaces for action. Mod.: Joachim Frank
