Future of values in our country
Modern societies are not only characterized by different lifestyles, but also by a multitude of values. Our actions are embedded in a framework of cultural influences, attitudes and interests - and have a decisive influence on technological and social developments.
And incisive, collectively relevant events - for example the terrorist attack of September 11, 2001 or the nuclear disaster in Fukushima in 2011 - have an impact on the development of a society.
In order to gain a preview of possible future value landscapes, the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) commissioned the study “The future of values of people in our country”. Your goal: to show which futures are possible.
The study derives six scenarios based on values - including, for example, the “bonus system”, “tempo differences” and a “return of the blocks”. Find out more and click through the individual elements - or take a look at the full or short version of the study.

Subject: Social-credit score system for Germany (Vorausschau)
The German ministry for education and science (BMBF) has published a study
in which it puts forward a Chinese-style social credit system for Germany.
A translated quote from the long version on an official BMBF
https://www.vorausschau.de/vorausschau/de/home/home_node.html#zukuenfte (the
web site's design is atrocious, trying to find the information is quite
difficult).
``Highly controversial at the beginning, the bonus point system is largely
accepted in the 2030s. It establishes new norms in everyday life that
were not possible before. The participatory development of the rules also
ensures greater acceptance among the population. Approval of the bonus
system is growing, particularly in view of the increasing dynamics of
climate change. A point-based evaluation, for example, the of ecological
footprint -- helps to make the polluter-pays principle transparent.''
Participation in the point system would be voluntary in the sense that not
participating would bring very real drawbacks. Another quote:
``The bonus system is also helpful for the labor market, which continues
to suffer from a shortage of skilled workers. system is helpful. It helps
to identify qualification potential and efficiently organize the spatial
mobility of the workforce.''
So, not participating would lead to lower chances of getting a job.
China is explicitly mentioned as a role model.D--
