Recto Verso event series

Each year, Recto Verso explores a socially relevant issue from different scientific perspectives. The events are run by SAGW member societies and institutes and are open to the public.

Aim of the project

Each year, the Recto Verso event series takes up a socially relevant issue and explores it from different perspectives. The events are organised by SAGW’s member societies or institutes and illustrate the diversity in the humanities and social sciences. These events take place throughout Switzerland and are intended for a wide audience.


2025/26 cycle: Futures

In 2025/26, the Recto Verso event series will be looking at past and present conceptions of the future. Is the apocalypse the end or a turning point? What is the normative effect of crisis discussions? Is there such a thing as Arab futurism? And does human creativity have a future? These are among the questions the events will be exploring.
