In the year 2024, the country is marred by unattended environmental and economic crises that lead to social chaos. Lauren Olamina, a preacher's daughter living in Los Angeles, is protected from danger by the walls of her gated community. However, in a night of fire and death, what begins as a fight for survival soon leads to something much more: a startling vision of human destiny . . . and the birth of a new faith.

Raisonner sur 2050 est une nécessité pratique, car l’histoire est chose mouvante, flexible, il est impossible de croire qu’en 2050 elle sera identique à celle que nous connaissons : les centres d’intérêt, les manières de connaître, les méthodes seront bien différents (il suffit de saisir les changements pour les années 1950-2000). Aussi bien une prospective 2050 oblige- t-elle à jeter un regard autre sur notre présent, un regard libre, assuré, et à pressentir des mutations dont souvent, par prudence, on préfère ne pas parler. Ces quinze leçons cherchent à esquisser les mutations d’ici à 2050 de quelques disciplines (l’histoire de la bureaucratie, l’histoire économique, l’histoire sociale)t à analyser les changements probables du système (par exemple pour la formation, l’ingénierie historique, les archives, la communication). Ces esquisses à l’échelle de 2050 permettent de saisir les zones d’incertitude, les facteurs d’évolution, elles montrent aussi ce qu’il serait important de faire ; elles introduisent à une vision différente de l’histoire, et François Monnier dans sa préface explique bien le sens de ces explorations, qui sont propres à susciter l’inquiétude : réfléchir sur l’historien de 2050 n’est pas innocent.
