Futures Theory: Philosophies of the World to Come: Futures Theory

Editat de Assistant Professor Jason Bahbak Mohaghegh
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 oct 2024
What are the most radical transformations on the horizon of our world?Shining a light on the many possibilities of the future from multiple perspectives, this book explores how futures are imagined across the world. Bringing together over 18 prominent thinkers from a variety of disciplines, it examines the potential worlds of the future and how they will affect everything from our culture to our politics, from our bodies to our minds. As future eras remain cloaked in relative obscurity, they compel the invention of new techniques for navigating those realms of imagination and speculation. With deeply immersive entries that analyse captivating phenomena occurring in the world today in places such as Latin America and the Caribbean, this book brings novel theoretical interpretations of transpiring events and the horizons they reveal. It skilfully tethers inexhaustible abstract concepts like the infinite, the beyond, and the emergence of new knowledge systems to a comprehensible structure that allows the analyses of the speculated unknown, ultimately allowing insight on features of futurity. Filled with insights from experts in the domains of literature, philosophy, visual art, architecture, design, media studies, anthropology, and more, Futures Theory contemplates the new variables that will expand and distort such fields in irreversibly compelling ways, opening up a discussion of the steps toward a new atmosphere for thought itself in the epochs to come.
