After Nihilism and Destiny (Mimesis International, 2015), here presented is a second collection of writings by Ema-nuele Severino, one of the most prominent philosophers of contemporaneity translated for the first time in English. while the first volume introduced the fundamental outlines of Severinian philosophy, in this second text Severino's analysis turns to the contemporary world and its main facets: politics, economics, religion, ethics, and technics guided by science. Page after page, Severino's analysis digs to their deepest roots and deduces what will be their inevitable development. Such ?deduction? could also be called ?prediction? of the future, but only insofar as what is understood by it is the logical argumentation that shows how the foundation of a thing essentially determines its necessary development. hence the title: On the Future of the World.
