After the theater of reconciliation and coming to terms with the present , the third season of Max Czollek's discussion series turns to the future. Its title is: The beginning is near. In view of the catastrophes that have occurred in recent years and are currently looming, this may seem somewhat counterintuitive - but that is precisely the point: to take the crisis as a starting point in order to move on differently and better. This requires a twofold insight: the recognition that current developments radically call into question previous political and economic conditions and forms of social interaction. And the assumption that it is therefore necessary to make a new start in order to change things for the better. The question of what has not worked and is currently not working is therefore closely linked to the question of the future. It forms the bracket for Czollek's discussions with actors who are concerned in one way or another with the question of how things can and must continue. In other words, they develop ideas and provide impetus for the motto of this third season: The beginning is near.

After Theatre of Reconciliation and Overcoming the Present, the third season of Max Czollek's series of talks, entitled The Beginning is Near, looks to the future. Considering the calamities of recent years and those currently looming, this may seem counterintuitive, but that's the point: to take these crises as a starting point from which to move forward to different and better things. It requires a twofold insight: firstly, recognizing that current developments radically question previous political and economic conditions and social mores, and secondly acknowledging that things must therefore start anew in order to change for the better. The question of what has not worked and is currently not working is closely linked to the question of the future. It forms the context for Czollek's conversations with people who, in one way or another, are dealing with the question of how things can and must continue. These interlocutors develop ideas and provide stimuli for the motto of this third season: The Beginning is Near.
