“The old world is dying, the new world is struggling to come to life: this is the age of monsters.” What philosopher Antonio Gramsci said about his time in the 1930s is true again in 2025. But what will the new world look like? What will replace the old world, which was shaped by a belief in free markets and globalization? What does an industrial policy look like that looks ahead instead of just reacting to crises? What about a climate policy that gets people on board? And what about better-managed globalization—without tariff wars and abuse of power by big tech?
Starting from Wednesday, leading experts from around the world explored all of these questions at the second Berlin Summit, building on last year’s Berlin Declaration: Winning back the future. Wednesday and yesterday in smaller groups, and today we are open to visit. At the Stober estate on the outskirts of Berlin.
