If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

A sustainable world that works well for everyone - we all want to go there, but (1) the picture of what it could look like and (2) the roadmap how to get there need a serious boost. Currently studying this, can pont me to books, thinkers concepts that are relevant in this context? Much appreciated!
