Thinking about the future from the end

  • A dialog with scientists from CAPAS
  • In dialogue

Have we reached the end as a society? Or are we simply experiencing the end of certain worlds, as there have been many? In this event, international researchers from the Käte Hamburger Center for Apocalyptic and Post-Apocalyptic Studies (CAPAS) will enter into a dialogue with the audience about past, present and future forms of the apocalypse.

In an interactive format, we want to bring together different perspectives and explore the question of how entire societies, but also each and every individual, deal with experiences and harbingers of collapse. We want to discuss how new forms of coexistence can emerge from expectations and experiences of the end. Because “apocalypse” does not have to mean total annihilation, but can also be a new beginning that opens up possibilities and new perspectives for survival and a better life.
