This open access volume makes an important contribution to the
ongoing research on hope theory by combining insights from both its
long history and its increasing multi-disciplinarity. In the first
part, it recognizes the importance of the centuries-old reflection
on hope by offering historical perspectives and tracing it back to
ancient Greek philosophy. At the same time, it provides novel
perspectives on often-overlooked historical theories and
developments and challenges established views. The second part of
the volume documents the state of the art of current research in
hope across eight disciplines, which are philosophy, theology,
psychology, economy, sociology, health studies, ecology, and
development studies. Taken together, this volume provides an
integrated view on hope as a multi-faced phenomenon. It contributes
to the further understanding of hope as an essential human
capacity, with the possibility of transforming our human societies.
