Past is Prologue | Past is Prediction | Past is Potential
Our mission is to learn from history’s lessons
At SoDy, we explore the dynamics of the past to better address the challenges we face today.
We aim to harness our growing understanding of complex societal dynamics from our exploration of the past in a way that sheds instructive light on current issues.
Our present, and so our future, is shaped by our past, to a much greater degree than most realize. But the future is not set in stone.
We work with a diverse group of scholars, policy-makers, advocates, and activists to offer to explore the impact of potential interventions and lay bare the different paths still available to help us navigate our modern polycrisis.
History doesn’t repeat itself, but it does rhyme
