Description

After her previous book, Rethinking Our World, eloquently untangled the complex world we live in, Maja Göpel delivers the encouragement and the tools we need to go into action and build the world we want to live in. Humanity is undergoing a massive process of transformation, and the way we live will change fundamentally, because things we have taken for granted about the environment, the economy, politics, society, and technology are crumbling. In We Can Do Better, Maja Göpel explains how we can understand such complex developments and use this knowledge to achieve a better world. There have always been great transformations in history, triggered by humans -- thus, we can also shape them. Our window to the future is open as never before. With this attitude, structural change is not an imposition, but an opportunity. It is time that we -- each of us individually, but also society as a whole -- allowed ourselves to think anew, to dream, and to ask two related, radical questions: Who do we want to be, and how do we want to live?

She is a member of the Club of Rome, the World Future Council, the Balaton Group, the German government's Bioeconomy Council, and a co-founder of the Scientists for Future network.
