Future has always fascinated people as it is connected with hope or fear. And, according to Robert Jungk, 

the future has already started. Peoples’ drives and motives determine, in a way, all future development.

We develop technologies in order to satisfy our needs better and easier.

The effects of the plow, printing press, electricity and railroad in history are matched today by research into increasing computer capacity, nuclear power, the Internet, artificial intelligence, regenerative energies and biotechnologies such as prenatal diagnostics. This and other research change human life.

The future has already started: globalization is directed by economization in all areas of life, which leaves many 

with a feeling of fear and helplessness. Jobs are exported to other countries or cut. 3,400 Billion Dollars 

are channeled daily around the globe in gigantic virtual capital transactions.

Many of the things that the future will hold for us are in the works today.  Animal and plant variety is in a steady decline because industrialized agriculture and genetic engineering promise to feed the world.

Clean Drinking Water and all other raw materials are decreasing. Our natural resources for life and production 

will be depleted or destroyed in less than 80 years.

Literature and film already discusses utopia and fiction in the present. They describe the changing human motives, goals and needs and predict our future evolution.

“The Future” has become the subject of innumerable futuristic, complex, intellectual and visually stunning computer games and movies, starting at Metropolis and leading to Avatar.

Will utopia and science fiction eventually leave its life on the screen and become reality? 

What can we expect from the next hundred years: invisible computers in all areas of life, clothing that monitors 

our health, artificially produced children, artificial organs, a cure to cancer, the doubling of life expectancy, 

repair on genes, thinking machines that are smarter than their inventors? Artificial Intelligence, production 

of new species, immortal humans, the travel to all planets within our solar system, time and space collapse?
