This is where it happens: in the cities!
The planet trembles, and through something that can be likened to human gravity, we end up in cities. We are in the midst of a silent revolution in which cities and women are the rebels. And the weapon is a Samsung instead of a Kalashnikov. Multinational companies are becoming multi-urban companies. The urban is the new black, and mayors are becoming the prime ministers of our time.
In this unique book, Per Schlingmann and Kjell A. Nordström guide you through what is happening in the world, in the city, and within us as human beings. Alongside the city’s seemingly unstoppable power of attraction, we see other dramatic changes that affect the conditions for us all:
• Success in the digital world requires skills that are not digital. When everything can be copied, what cannot be articulated or digitized is what remains.
• It is the time of women. Equipped with knowledge and a mobile phone, they step forward. Men cling desperately to economic power, but for how long?
• Now it is wild knowledge that counts. No matter how good universities are, they only teach hygienic knowledge. To achieve success, something more is required. Something magical. Wild knowledge.
It is up to you how you relate to this development. It is about being open, humble, daring to experiment, and handling change by learning the ability to relearn.
Like much else that emerges today, this book cannot be categorized. It is a collage that describes our time and how you yourself can deal with the changes we all face. This book is simply queer and is searching for its category, like so many others today.
