How can we overcome crises and shape our common future? Since the
beginning of the Corona pandemic, we have all been put to an
immense test. This shows how humanity can successfully and
constructively deal with such situations and make the best of them.
And we learn that the future is not something that happens to us,
but that we can actively and constructively shape it. The basic
prerequisite for this is an attitude of openness, mutual
helpfulness and hope. This non-fiction book vividly reports on the
currently prevailing images of the future and the common longings
as well as on people's capacity for hope and action. It reveals the
power of desirable images of the future and of a collective hope as
the opposite of general helplessness or of blind and naive
optimism. The central statements of this book are based on the
experiences of thousands of people in more than ten countries who
participated in the scientific study of the Hope Barometer in 2019
and 2020. In a unique way, this combines lived practice with the
latest findings of social science futurology, positive psychology
and pragmatic philosophy. Target groups: This book is for anyone
who wants to look to the future with hope. It offers concrete
answers to key questions and shows how crises can be overcome while
shaping a better future for individuals and society as a whole.
About the author: Dr. Andreas M. Krafft teaches at the University
of St. Gallen and at the Free University of Berlin. As co-president
of swissfuture, the Swiss Association for Futures Research, and as
a board member of the Swiss Society for Positive Psychology, he
leads the international research network of the Hope Barometer.
