(Im)perfect futures. The preferred future of the voiceless

Abstract

The weakening of the ability to aspire in young people exposes communities to increasing inequality, social immobility, a sense of powerlessness, resentment and fear of the other. In order to reverse this trend, the project ‘Futuri (im)perfetti - Il domani possibile di chi non ha voce’ investigated the representations of the future developed by young people under 30, identifying the mediators of the social imaginary between utopian and dystopian representations of tomorrow.
