Abstract

The task of those of us living in the 21st century is not to be dragged down by nostalgia and to take sterile measures to prolong and revive the game of "economic growth" that is ending but to celebrate this "plateau" that we have reached, and through "new activities" to transform this world from a "safe, convenient, and comfortable (only) society" to a "society vibrant and worthy of living. Rather, it is about transforming the world from a "safe, convenient, and comfortable (only) society" to a "truly prosperous society worthy of living" through "new activities" while celebrating this "plateau" we have reached.
