In so doing it addresses issues such as how individuals imagine the future of their society, and whether this has any bearing on the way in which they perceive and relate to their own, personal future. The respondents’ future imaginings are also considered in relation to influential theoretical accounts that have sought to diagnose the character of contemporary society, and with it the future horizon. Drawing on this discussion, some alternative ways of conceptualising micro experiences of future-oriented thinking are proposed, and the role that hope can play in this process is addressed. This book will appeal to readers who are interested in the sociology of risk and uncertainty, time, and youth. . | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | 关键词 | Anxiety; Everyday lives; Long-term futures; Climate change; Social and ecological decline; Biographical f | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-65325-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-88000-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-65325-9Series ISSN 2523-7268 Series E-ISSN 2523-7276 | issn_series | 2523-7268 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
