This is tomorrow

Somewhere along the line, we have lost the ability to dream. Not so long ago, our gaze was focused on the future and we were all thinking about how things could be improved. Think of the 30-hour week, progressive taxes that redistribute wealth, a basic income or the expansion of the commons. These are not unworldly utopias but concrete measures that were once successfully introduced in various places in the world or were on the table at the highest level. Thomas Decreus and Christophe Callewaert discuss the contemporary recipes to get our society out of the impasse. Their conclusion is surprising. Change does not appear to be that difficult. Stubbornly sticking to the policy of the past thirty years and hoping that it will suddenly solve the economic, social and climate crisis, that is unrealistic.
'In this vibrant book, Decreus and Callewaert open the windows of thought. Anyone looking for new ideas worth fighting for cannot ignore This is Tomorrow.' - Rutger Bregman, author
'The possibilities that are presented are an essential counterbalance in a world that threatens to sink into fear, complacency, idleness and cynicism. Continuing to creatively strive for a better world is nothing less than the meaning of human existence.' - Dirk De Wachter, psychiatrist-psychotherapist and writer
