Abstract

This chapter shows that the idea of a common future is highlighted through awareness that a global collapse may impact the entire planet. Living with a pandemic like Covid-19, since March 2020, has shown that this is a concrete fact and what it means for the planet. For this reason, the choice and recognition of the Global Agendas, Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UN, Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). Available: un-org/en/about-us/universal-declaration-of-human-rights, 1948), and Agenda 2030 (UN, Transforming our World: The Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development. Available: un.org/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol=A/RES/70/1&Lang=E, 2015) are concrete options that lead us to recognize that we do have a Common Future. Our predatory way of acting, and the absence of criticism of this model of development, need to be rethought whether through a radical critique of this model or by building new values and ways of living, or the good life.
