The future is now

Description

Students committed to environmental protection and the preservation of their rights and those of future generations set an example: It is not just the present that makes clear demands of us, but the future does, as well. This applies not only to ecological responsibility, but also to a serious culture of remembrance, a responsible approach to colonial history and diaspora, and political conscientiousness.

The first Sharjah Architecture Triennial 2019 is dedicated to these topics. Hatje Cantz published an anthology in the year of the event, which compiles the results and consequences for future architects. The second volume now focuses on a more general look at the challenges that a future worth living in will bring.

The transdisciplinary contributions include articles by renowned scientists, as well as artistic works on the topic.

Rights of Future Generations (Bilingual edition) invites readers to explore these pressing issues and understand their importance for our collective future.
