Can our shared history inspire solutions to the most urgent challenges facing humanity today?
Join us at the RSA for a transformative talk with influential social philosopher Roman Krznaric. In a world fixated on the present, we often overlook the invaluable lessons of the past. Roman will explore how insights from the last thousand years can help tackle today's urgent global challenges—bridging the inequality gap, reviving democracy, and preventing ecological collapse.
Discover how understanding the origins of capitalism can inform AI regulation, what 18th-century Japan can teach us about creating regenerative economies, and how the coffee houses of Georgian London can help tame social media. Roman will show that history isn't just about the past—it's a tool for reimagining our future.
Don’t miss this chance to gain a vision of radical hope and practical solutions for the decades ahead.
Speaker: Roman Krznaric, social philosopher and author of History for Tomorrow: Inspiration from the Past for the Future of Humanity
Chair: Dr Joanna Choukeir, director of design & innovation, RSA
