The Covid 19 pandemic and other disruptive systemic crises changed social, economic and cultural life suddenly and violently - worldwide. Global thinking and local action have taken on a new meaning. How do we want to and how can we live and work in the future? At the Center for Advanced Studies, we use an interdisciplinary approach to analyze social, economic and political processes and look ahead to their impacts.
