Summary |
"Die Welt in hundert Jahren" by Arthur Brehmer and Ernst Lübbert is a speculative work written in the late 19th century. The book gathers insights from various contributors on the possible future of humanity and technological advancements, painting an elaborate picture of life a century ahead. It discusses themes related to societal progress, the role of machines, and the evolution of human relationships within the context of rapid scientific and cultural changes. The opening of this work presents a philosophical foreword that anticipates advancements in human civilization, focusing on both technological innovations and ethical evolution. It emphasizes mankind's aspirations to foresee the future based on the current trajectory of developments, suggesting that greater mechanization and a societal shift towards humanitarianism will lead to a world transformed by compassion and cooperation. The text introduces concepts such as the decline of warfare, the rise of social responsibility, and the unifying strength of technological progress which will shape daily life and human interactions in the coming century.
