=== Outstanding hard questions ===

The book acknowledges that it touches on many questions for which no clear answers are yet available. The book requests that readers be willing to carry out further work on these questions.

Example questions explicitly mentioned in the book, in Chapter 11 ("Towards abundant democracy") are as follows:

<blockquote>
* Which aspects of human nature should be changed, and which protected at all costs?
* In which circumstances should the precautionary principle override the proactionary principle?
* Which types of genetic modifications should be encouraged, and which discouraged - in food, in pets, and in humans?
* Which sources of energy (for example, nuclear energy?) should be developed and deployed most quickly?
* How much public funding should be allocated to the development of atomically precise nanofactories - and with what constraints?
* Which approaches to curing diseases of neurodegeneration should be prioritised?
* What restrictions should be applied to autonomous lethal weapons systems?
* How can surveillance of potential dangerous misuse of technology best coexist with protections for individual privacy?
* What kind of new social contract should be put in place - and how strongly should UBI feature in these plans?
* Which kinds of inequality and diversity should be celebrated, and which resisted?
* How can the various regulatory systems from different local markets be woven together into an effective international framework that prevents rogue elements from slipping dangerous goods and services through the cracks between these agreements?
* Which international alliances deserve greater support, and which should be avoided?<ref>[https://transpolitica.org/projects/abundance-manifesto/11-an-abundance-of-collaboration-and-democracy/ From start of Chapter 11]</ref>
