Do we need humility?: On moderation, power, and humanity in uncertain times

By Hans-Martin Gutmann

In a world marked by power struggles, moral certainties, and global uncertainty, humility might seem outdated - or even weak. Yet Hans-Martin Gutmann argues the opposite: that humility is not submission, but strength. It is the quiet courage to recognize limits, to listen before judging, and to act responsibly in the face of complexity. Drawing on philosophy, theology, and cultural observation, Gutmann explores humility as a social and spiritual force - one that can heal divisions, restore dialogue, and re-anchor human dignity in a time of arrogance and fragmentation. From politics to everyday life, from global crises to personal encounters, Do We Need Humility? invites readers to rediscover an ancient virtue for a disoriented age - not as moral restraint, but as the foundation of wisdom, empathy, and coexistence.
