OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

The digital age that should mark people’s improved and more comfortable lives has shifted a balance of modern human beings. Any real feeling and experience is now considered obsolete and anything we are new to try, banal. Social networks determine our relationships, which either do not expand or do not evolve to a large extent in their absence. At the same time, society suffers from difficult economic problems. Corrupt governments of states could only bring the situation to the end of the barley. A barbour that can only be crossed with real values. But also. Ethical principles are missing from governments, civil servants, education, young people from all over the world. Every act is considered normal as long as it satisfies our egoism. And if this egoism leads to at least one subtle spiritual investigation or an attempt to rehabilitate the labour market, we are lucky. Because most of them imitate the prominence and dreams. Most try to win the beauty when it should not have a place in their lives. What beauty do we talk to? Each defines it differently. The issue is that what is now considered to be a “coul” is often the one that destroys the whole. But everything is good! The cigarettes in each recess are scattered, such as margarites on a mountain pasture, and the graffiti are fired in the urban galleries, making a spectacle... What beautiful our cities are! Car smoke does not disturb us. Forgotten bins do not tempt us. It is enough that our cities are not flooded by climate change. It is enough that COP27 did not discuss us at all, but about something bitter African farmers who cannot feed their children.

If at least half of these problems could be solved by 2040, I would be happy. But we will find the values to bridge the gap between modern realities and real life?

Ένα αισιόδοξο μέλλον
The United States of America after failed attempts by its presidents to annex Greenland, Canada, Mexico and other countries of the world has collapsed economically. Their products no longer resonate in the world. Hollywood tainies and their writers in the prose of a third grader are not even heard. The rest of the world is again appreciating the classic great directors like Bergman, Godard, Dreyer and young directors who have now emerged and their readings range from Flaubert to Beckett to Fosse. The new superpower is now China, but it does not intervene politically in the rest of the world. Since the collapse of the Americans the world has gained a much higher level of education and culture. This has led to a flourishing of the arts and letters. A new, shall we say, renaissance, but this time on a global level. Eventually shortly after 2040 China, and while it has already bought up all the sovereign debt of the United States, which is now unable to get involved financially, gains control of the United States and makes it their protectorate. The future now looks very optimistic.

Egy élhető Európa
Reducing social inequalities. I dream of a Europe where the EU minimum wage and minimum pension are introduced in all Member States. Where there is equal pay for equal work and a social safety net behind everyone. Where the environment is stable with the rights of the comfortable. It's good to live and work, it's possible to go from one to the other, we can get by, young people don't want to go abroad. The most important thing would really be that not only the wealth of the rich should increase and they should have as many millions as possible, but that the little people should also be able to live a predictable and secure life. We do not want more. The rights of minorities are also important, of course they are important, everyone should live in peace. There should be no racism, homophobia, exclusion, stigmatisation, but that is also very important, but it is even more important that we should be able to live in material security. To have a home, a job, to be able to start a family, to be able to go on holiday sometimes. We should also be able to cover unexpected expenses.

A better future... sounds just like something futuristic, bordering on a dream that will remain so... But there's nothing stopping us from dreaming, right... Personally, a better future looks like this to me: people are calm, calm because they are not thinking about how they will pay their bills this month or year (everyone's work is valued fairly and paid accordingly); it's clean- the air is clean, when you take a deep breath you don't suffocate, you just breathe and you like it; I don't see stray dogs and cats either, every animal has a home. In a word, somehow for the little time that has passed and we are already in the future, things are happening, not just talking about how they will happen. To me, a better future means not being hung over and caught up in household chores, leading a full life!

Постигнато световно щастие
In 2040, there are no banks, collectors, government or private bailiffs. All people have a basic income and are not struggling to survive. All of this has been achieved using artificial intelligence and robots in every sphere of human activities. Wars are banned! Homes have been built are all. Even for the unborn children.
