The next apocalypse. The art and science of survival. Flying K.

Chris Belygli - an underwater archaeologist, instructor in the wild environment and a professor of anthropology at the University of Transylvania. He worked in Central and South America and in the Mediterranean. He lives in Lexington, Kentukki, USA.

pandemia, climate change or war - our era is saturated with the aroma of judgment. Modern films, books and other sources are filled with terrible fantasies about life after the Apocalypse. We imagine terrible, abandoned cities and how we return to the Earth in a desperate attempt to survive.

In his book, Chris Begli claims that our ideas about how the catastrophe is fundamentally incorrect. On the example of the collapse of civilizations of the past, such as the Maya and Western Roman Empire, the author shows that this is rather not collapse as a result of the cataclysm, but a long process of gradual changes. Some people throw their homes and neighbors. Others are united in order to start everything again.

The most important thing is what happens after the event that launched this reaction. Beagli emphasizes that the end of the world has experienced communities, groups of people, and not a single heroes. And so it will be during the next apocalypse.
