About the Book

English summary: The Roman god Janus can still be a role model for us today. His double look forwards and backwards teaches us that retrospection is also necessary for sustainable progress. Retrospection has a double meaning in this context: it describes looking back into the past as well as looking after his fellow human beings for strengthening social cohesion. For a more detailed description of the Janus principle, historians, philosophers and psychologists have their say, as do writers and artists. In addition, numerous illustrations, examples from novels, poems, fairy tales, films and songs illustrate the topic presented. The first part of the book presents a wide variety of views on the question of whether human history has ultimately led to social progress. The second part describes reflections and well-considered retreats that could enable a new beginning with opportunities for progress. Finally, in the third and final part, it is examined whether there are approaches to strengthening the social cohesion of a society through mutual consideration and support. In the last chapter, Carsten Stahmer sets out concrete guidelines for a sustainable civil society without competitive pressure and state paternalism. German description: Der romische Gott Janus kann uns auch heutzutage noch ein Vorbild sein. Sein Doppelblick nach vorne und zuruck lehrt uns, dass fur nachhaltige Fortschritte auch Rucksichten notig sind. Rucksichten haben in dem Zusammenhang eine Doppelbedeutung: Sie bezeichnen den Ruckblick in die Vergangenheit ebenso wie die Rucksichtnahme auf andere, den sozialen Zusammenhalt. Zur naheren Beschreibung des Janus-Prinzips kommen Geschichtsforscher, Philosophen und Psychologen ebenso ausfuhrlich zu Wort wie Schriftsteller und Kunstler. Ausserdem veranschaulichen zahlreiche Abbildungen, Beispiele aus Romanen, Gedichten, Marchen, Filmen und Songs die dargestellte Thematik. Der erste Teil des Buches prasentiert unterschiedlichste Ansichten zur Frage, ob die Geschichte der Menschheit letztlich zu gesellschaftlichen Fortschritten gefuhrt hat. Im zweiten Teil werden Ruckbesinnungen und wohluberlegte Ruckzuge geschildert, die einen Neuanfang mit Fortschrittschancen ermoglichen konnten. Im dritten und letzten Teil wird schliesslich gepruft, ob es Ansatze gibt, durch gegenseitige Rucksichtnahme und Unterstutzung den sozialen Zusammenhalt einer Gesellschaft zu starken. Dazu stellt Carsten Stahmer im letzten Kapitel konkrete Wegweiser zu einer zukunftsfahigen Zivilgesellschaft ohne Konkurrenzdruck und staatliche Bevormundung auf.
