ETHICS FOR THE FUTURE - STEPHANIE BENDER KARTON...

Which of the possible futures might be a good future  and how do we know? Stephanie Bender
looks at contemporary films and novels to address major ethical challenges of the future: the
ecological catastrophe  digitalisation and biotechnology. She proposes that fiction and its
modes of aesthetic simulation and emotional engagement offer a different way of knowing and
judging possible futures. From a critical posthumanist angle  she discusses works ranging from
Don DeLillo's Zero K (2017) and Margaret Atwood's MaddAddam Trilogy (2003-2013) to Kim Stanley
Robinson's New York 2140 as well as Avatar (2009)  and Blade Runner 2049 (2017) among many
others.
