THE REMAKING OF CIVILIZATION
Technology, Society, and the Future of Humanity
Human civilization is entering a period of transformation unlike any in its history.
Artificial intelligence is reshaping knowledge and work. Automation is redefining economic life. Biotechnology is changing the boundaries of health and human capability. Demographic shifts are altering societies across the globe, while digital networks transform how people communicate, learn, govern, and organize collective life.
These developments are not isolated trends.
Together they represent a profound remaking of civilization itself.
In The Remaking of Civilization, Alina Vey examines the technological, demographic, social, and institutional forces that are reshaping the twenty-first century. Moving beyond traditional geopolitics and current events, she explores the deeper structural changes influencing the future of humanity.
Drawing upon history, economics, technology, sociology, and civilizational analysis, this book examines:
Artificial intelligence and automation
Population decline and demographic transition
Biotechnology and human enhancement
Information systems and digital societies
The future of work and economic adaptation
Identity, meaning, and social cohesion
Governance in an age of complexity
The future trajectory of human civilization
Balanced, evidence-based, and accessible, The Remaking of Civilization offers a long-term perspective on one of the defining questions of our age:
What kind of civilization are we becoming?
Neither utopian nor pessimistic, this book provides a thoughtful exploration of the opportunities, challenges, and choices that will shape the decades ahead.
Perfect for readers of history, geopolitics, technology, economics, sociology, and future studies, The Remaking of Civilization is an essential guide to understanding the forces transforming our world.
