Outlining the Future
Perspectives on Societal Development
in the 21st Century

Workshop

Uwe Jean Heuser
Our views and expectations for the future play as much a part in how we make decisions as external, objective conditions. The Center for Applied Policy Research convened Germany's leading future researchers to compare exactly these views and expectations. What are the most important questions for thinking systematically about the future? What are the consequences of increasing networking and biotechnologization? What are the values of today that go furthest to shaping the world of tomorrow?

Digitalization
Shaping the Future
Brainstorming

Dettling, Marin, Weidenfeld
Digital processes are transforming the way people around the globe work and live; within Europe, Munich can rightly claim to be one of the centers of the new economy with its strengths in media, banking, and research. Our participants were all drawn from the local area, but they presented views that were far from parochial in character. Speakers considered the shape of an industrialized society after the digital revolution, with particular emphasis on likely economic consequences.

Speakers at the brainstorming included Dr. Gabriele Hooffacker of Hooffacker & Partner, Prof. Dalia Marin of the University of Munich's Economics Department, and Warnfried Dettling, of DIE ZEIT. Additional guests represented multimedia companies, banks, economic research institutes and news agencies.

Genetic Technology
Shaping the Future
Brainstorming

Kirschbaum
Munich's biotech industry is one of the strongest in Europe, so the CAP didn't have to go far afield to find world-class talent for a brainstorming session on the social and political implications of genetic technology. Our participants presented views on how the industry was likely to grow in the next two decades, along with longer-range ideas on the types of developments that society should expect from biotech.

Speakers at the brainstorming included Dr. Bernd Kirschbaum of Hoechst Marion Roussel's Center of Applied Genomics in Martinsried, Dr. Boris Steipe of the University of Munich's Genetic Research Center, and Dr. Reiner Anselm of the University of Munich's Institute for Systematic Theology. Dr. Paul Ulrich Unschuld of the Institute for the History of Medicine at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich provided particularly provocative cross-cultural commentary based on his extensive experience in China.
