People have a plastic brain that is capable of learning throughout
their lives and must first find out what is important in life. That
is why we are and will remain seekers. But we can all too easily
get lost in the search for a happy and meaningful life, as
individuals as well as as a whole society. As soon as we begin to
feel that we have gone astray, we become afraid. And that's good.
Fear is our most vigilant companion. It enables us to learn from
mistakes. We cannot live without fear. With his many years of
experience in the field of fear research, the neurobiologist Gerald
Huther explores the question of how this function of fear, which
protects our lives, can be reconciled with our longing for a life
free of fear. His surprising answer: people can also learn to
ignore legitimate fears. You can even experience that a fear that
can be felt deep within you can be overlaid by another,
superficially triggered and more controllable fear. In order to
achieve certain goals, we humans are able to both suppress and
intensify fear - not only in ourselves, but much more powerfully in
others. The stirring up or appeasing of fear can therefore be used
specifically to enforce one's own interests and intentions. This
instrumentalization of fear makes people dependent and manipulable,
robs them of their freedom. Accordingly, Gerald Huther does not
describe how we can free ourselves from fear, but what we can do in
order not to become driven by the fears fueled by other or interest
groups.
