Reimagining Europe: Crisis, Solidarity, and the Search for a Common Future

In moments of uncertainty, societies are compelled to imagine what comes next. The future becomes a contested space, shaped not only by policies and institutions but also by competing visions of what a good society should look like. In his book, Politics and Social Visions, Prof. Maurizio Ferrera of the University of Milan explores this dynamic with clarity and depth, arguing that Europe’s trajectory cannot be understood without paying close attention to the power of ideas. His work reminds us that political life is not merely about solving problems, but also about imagining possibilities.
