520 |a The idea of ''hope'' has received significant attention in the political sphere recently. But is hope just wishful thinking, or can it be something more than a political catch-phrase? This book argues that hope can be understood existentially, or on the basis of what it means to be human.

War, poverty and an absolute reliance on technology are real-life evils that can suffocate hope. Marcel''s thought provides a way to overcome these negative experiences. An ethics.
