"Between the Past and the Future" is regarded by Oran as her best work. This collection of political and ideological essays is compiled after such great works as "The Origin of Totalitarianism" and "The Condition of Man". The successive articles present her extensive thinking on different fields and topics, including freedom, authority, tradition, history, politics, culture, and the development of space technology.
Although the subject matter is different, these articles all flow the same spirit. Oran intends to tell you and me who live in the modern world: the thoughts and cultural traditions that have guided people and empowered us in the past have been interrupted, so we must go deep into the riverbed of history to find the heritage of these thoughts, and constantly think about the current real events to find out from them. signpost for the future direction. "Between the past and the future" is, on the one hand, a moral and political dilemma of the present, but it is also a moment when truth flashes to us.
Oran believes that "all thoughts come from life experience", this book is her own thought experiment, and it is also her invitation to call all readers to think exercises (exercise). Although written fifty years ago, Oran has already provided prophetic and keen insights into the topics such as "post-truth" and "anthropocene" that have profoundly influenced the contemporary era. Today, we can still start from her unique thinking and move towards a distant place with infinite possibilities.
