| Description | This treatise discusses two concepts, namely preventive thinking and long-term thinking. Preventive thinking is well established in preventive medicine, of which family planning is a prime example. Preventive thinking is ethical, cost-effective and pragmatic because both individuals and populations benefit from it. Long-term thinking is implicitly included in preventive medicine but needs to be incorporated elsewhere. The treatise further presents Roman Krznaric's The Good Ancestor, where the idea of long-term thinking is discussed and presented to a larger public. Both preventive thinking and long-term thinking are essential in combating global issues of today, including the problem of human overpopulation. |
