Thomasius Club: Detlef Pollack – Große Versprechen der Moderne

In the organizer's words:

Where does the unease with modernity come from? Why are the promises with which it began no longer fully valid? And what would be the consequences of completely abandoning the belief in progress that is central to modernity?

We discuss these and other questions with sociologist Detlef Pollack. In his book, he takes stock of the promises of modernity and its paradoxes, but also questions prominent critiques of modernity. What are the challenges we will have to face in the future?

Moderated by Uta Karstein and Anton Marchel.
