In / of

Could you tell me which one is better (or both acceptable) between "in" and "of" in the following sentence?
Thank you.

How wonderful it would be if we could resolve complicated problems of / in our societies like that?

lucas21c Could you tell me which one is better (or both acceptable) between "in" and "of" in the following sentence? Both are acceptable. The only subtle distinction I see is that in is used to describe a position inside and of has a strong sense of possession.
