In this book, leading sociologists explore how, in our digital age of connectivity, temporal acceleration and real-time simultaneity impact personal experience, relations between generations and institutional processes.

The authors analyse the entanglement between past and future and explain how our ability to conceive the future is based not only upon the memory of the past, but also on forecasts about environmental crisis. Bringing memory and future studies into a unique dialogue, they highlight the crucial role of the past elaboration processes in freeing the future from the weight of trauma and renewing the ability to hope.

Offering a sophisticated and innovative social theory in a burgeoning field, this is a much-needed intervention to the current 'temporal crisis' of social life and sociological debates.
