Possibilities in postnormal times

Abstract

In a time of global unrest and “polycrises,” the study and utilization of possibilities is a matter of urgency. In this article I briefly review some of the current studies that point to a view of human beings as having greater capacities, potentials, and possibilities, from the cognitive to the relational and spiritual. I celebrate the birth of this journal in the hope that a greater awareness of human possibilities will lead to more attention and research and an awareness that current assumptions about human possibilities are too limited.
