Anderen wichtig sein – Maike Luhmann und Michael Zichy über Einsamkeit und Lebenssinn

In the organizer's words:

It is described as a "widespread disease", as "the new social issue of our time" (Hendrik Wüst): Loneliness is increasingly seen as one of the major challenges facing our society - both personally and politically.
Psychologist Maike Luhmann, one of Germany's most prominent loneliness researchers, summarizes the current state of research in her book Loneliness - Why it affects us all. She examines when loneliness becomes dangerous, what role modern lifestyles play and what a society that effectively combats it should look like. Philosopher Michael Zichyn approachesthe topic from the other side. In Being important to others. A Philosophy of the Meaning of Life, he develops an answer to the question of the meaning of life that is both accessible and fundamental: loneliness thus appears as a lack of recognition, belonging and meaning.
