This volume proposes an alternative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn The \u003cem\u003eCoronavirus Crisis and Its Teachings: Steps towards Multi-Resilience\u003c\/em\u003e Roland Benedikter and Karim Fathi first describe the pluri-dimensional characteristics of the Coronavirus crisis. Then they draw the pillars for a more \"multi-resilient\" Post-Corona world including socio-political recommendations on how to generate it. The Coronavirus crisis has proven to be a bundle crisis consisting of multiple, interconnected crisis dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore Corona, most concepts of a \"resilient society\" implied a rather isolated focus on only one crisis at a time. Future preparedness in the 21st century will require a multi- and transdisciplinary risk-management concept that the authors call \"multi-resilience\". \"Multi-resilience\" means to systematically enhance the universal resilience competencies of societies, such as collective intelligence or overall responsiveness, making them appliable to pluri-dimensional crisis contexts. If the Coronavirus crisis in retrospect will have contributed to implementing multi-resilience, then it will ultimately have contributed to progress.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume includes a Foreword by Jan Nederveen Pieterse and an Afterword by Manfred B.
