If we are serious about rethinking global cooperation we have to challenge our current thinking and question taken-for-granted convictions. Our guests of NADEL 50 years will do exactly that.

Rutger Bregman reconsiders human nature through his lens as a historian to challenge the Western notion of mankind as selfish utility maximizers. Bregman argues that if people are basically good, this implies very different strategies towards a more inclusive and equal global future.

Rutger Bregman is a historian and author. He has published five books on history, philosophy, and economics. His books Humankind (2020) and Utopia for Realists (2017) were both New York Times Bestsellers and have been translated in more than 40 languages. Bregman has twice been nominated for the prestigious European Press Prize for his work at The Correspondent. He lives in Holland.
