問對問題

詳細資訊

我們總是不斷尋找更好的答案，卻很少敢於提出真正關鍵的問題。

這本書挑戰我們對政治、社會正義與人類進步的思考方式。從自殺防治到居住正義，從民主制度到教育改革，真正能帶來突破的，不是重複既有的答案，而是勇於改變提問。

與其問：「他為什麼選擇結束生命？」不如問：「是什麼讓他找不到留下來的理由？」

與其問：「如何防止福利被濫用？」不如問：「如何讓尊嚴擴及每一個人？」

與其問：「如何贏得選舉？」不如問：「如何確保民主能延續給下一代？」

透過真實故事、全球案例與大膽的政策洞見，徐萍揭示了如何透過改變提問方式，打破恐懼、匱乏與指責的循環，並開啟尊嚴、信任與自由的新可能。

這不僅是一本關於「問題」的書，更是一份改變社會敘事的行動藍圖。

改變，不是從答案開始，而是從勇於問對問題開始。

Why do we keep searching for better answers when we have not dared to ask the right questions?

This book challenges the way we think about politics, social justice, and human progress. From suicide prevention to housing justice, from democracy to education, the most transformative breakthroughs come not from repeating old answers but from daring to reframe the questions.

Instead of asking “Why did he take his life?”, we must ask “What kept him from finding reasons to stay?”
Instead of asking “How do we stop welfare abuse?”, we must ask “How do we expand dignity for all?”
Instead of asking “How do we win elections?”, we must ask “How do we secure democracy for the next generation?”
Through powerful stories, global case studies, and bold policy insights, Ping Xu reveals how reframing the question can break cycles of fear, scarcity, and blame — and open the way to dignity, trust, and freedom.
This is not just a book about asking questions. It is a blueprint for changing the narrative of society itself.
Change begins not with answers, but with the courage to ask better questions.

Ping Xu is a Taiwanese-born American author, interpreter, and global advocate for Universal Basic Income (UBI). A former concert pianist whose career was cut short by injury, she has dedicated her life to exploring the root causes of systemic injustice and offering bold, practical visions for reform. Xu is the author of Dismantling the Appendix (三部曲), Open the Sluice, and House Is a Human Right, Not a Commodity. She is also the founder of UBI Asia Pacific, a platform providing resources on UBI to Chinese-speaking audiences. Her work challenges outdated systems and inspires readers to replace fear and scarcity with dignity, trust, and freedom.
