Érase una vez un grupo de libertarios que idearon el Proyecto Free Town, un plan para tomar el control de una ciudad estadounidense y eliminar por completo su gobierno. En 2004, en Grafton (Nuevo Hampshire), un asentamiento apenas poblado con una carretera asfaltada, se hizo realidad ese plan. La financiación pública de casi todo se redujo: del cuerpo de bomberos, la biblioteca, la escuela. Las leyes estatales y federales no desaparecieron, pero se hicieron más silenciosas: suaves sugerencias que apenas se oían en la espesura del pueblo. Los osos, en cambio, eran cada vez más visibles.

After many years during which it languished in relative obscurity, in remote classrooms of computer science departments and in small prototype projects for tech companies, artificial intelligence (AI) is now a searingly hot topic across the media. Yet much of the public discussion is so feverish that an understanding of the basic scientific and engineering elements of the field is easily lost, often resulting in exaggerated claims, as well as dangerously neglected threats.

Este libro pinta un vívido retrato de un movimiento internacional impulsado por ideas y prácticas extrañas y frecuentemente inquietantes, pero cuya obsesión por trascender las limitaciones humanas puede verse como una especie de microcosmos cultural, una intensificación radical de nuestra fe más amplia en el poder de la tecnología como motor del progreso humano. Es un estudio de carácter de la excentricidad humana y una meditación sobre el deseo inmemorial de trascender los hechos básicos de nuestra existencia animal, un deseo tan primordial como las religiones más antiguas.

"Questo audiolibro non è un tentativo di prevedere il futuro. Questo audiolibro è un tentativo di sbloccare il futuro". E per sbloccare il futuro, scrive Rutger Bregman, bisogna tornare alle utopie. Di fronte al ritorno dei nazionalismi, al divario sempre più ampio tra ricchi e poveri e allo stress che il carico di lavoro porta ogni giorno nelle nostre vite, siamo costretti a riconoscere che le nostre aspettative sullo sviluppo liberale della società occidentale si sono drammaticamente consumate, lasciandoci di fronte alla dura verità.

The LGBT agenda, for too long, has been dominated by pragmatic issues like same-sex marriage and gays in the military. It has been stifled by this myopic focus on the present, which is short-sighted and assimilationist. Cruising Utopia seeks to break the present stagnancy by cruising ahead. Part manifesto, part love-letter to the past and the future, Cruising Utopia argues that the here and now are not enough and issues an urgent call for the revivification of the queer political imagination.

Die Rechte und die autoritären Aspirationen mancher Politiker und Regierenden machen uns wieder Angst—die Geschichte darf sich doch nicht wiederholen. Die Linken müssen sich neu aufstellen, müssen kämpfen, damit es in unseren globalisierten Gesellschaften ein Gleichgewicht der verschiedenen Kräfte und Denkweisen gibt. Dabei dürfen sie ihre Wurzeln nicht vergessen—erwachsen aus der Dialektik der Aufklärung besitzen die Linken die stärkste Waffe, die sie progressiv einsetzen können: die Utopie. Nur mit einer Utopie im Gepäck kann die Linke getrost in die Zukunft schauen.
