A Compass for the Future," which discusses cooperating to solve crises and negotiating future prosperity with central democratic values, drawing on Maja Göpel's political economy. On February 2, the Museum Luzern displayed an 18th-century hip pad, described as an "invisible status symbol," from the private textile collection of the Meyer-am Rhyn family.
