Prometheus and Gaia examines the ideological positions of Futurism and Eco-Pessimism. Whereas these are hardly ever spoken about in mainstream discourse, they do have sturdy resonances in at the moment’s in style politics and tradition. In gentle of existential threats posed by local weather change, disruptive applied sciences and financial crises, many have grown weary of the “small fixes” provided by mainstream policy-makers. Radical change thus seems needed, as Futurism and Eco-Pessimism emerge as two elementary challenges to the established order. The Futurist claims that the present dynamism of expertise is incompatible with human limitations, whereas the Eco-Pessimist sees the local weather disaster as symptomatic of a broader human domination over nature. What these seemingly reverse currents have in widespread is a shared rejection of the human body as grounding politics; every seeks to subordinate the human in favor of an entirely alien different, both within the type of an anarchic nature or a dynamic expertise. To transcend this unusual coincidence of opposites, Prometheus and Gaia makes the optimistic case for a humanism that’s rationalist with out being anthropocentric.
