Science Fiction Utopia Radical Imagination Red River Radical Issue 2 Red River Radical May 2011 http://redriverradical.worpress.com http://anarchology.wordpress.com [email protected] Science Fiction Utopia Red River Radical is a zine (like a mini- and the magazine) about politics, gender, culture and other stuff pertaining to the Red Radical Imagination River valley and the rest of the world. We are anarchists, communists, radicals, feminists, anti-racists, and anti- colonialists. We’re a little weird, but you do let us babysit your children, and feed you. Anytime you leave your house you risk running into us. Who knows, maybe we have more in common than you real- ize. We want to hear from you. Wanna get published?

Science Fiction has become synonymous with Science fiction could offer discourse on how to movies with poorly written scripts and high special become human in more novel, free, and beautiful effects budgets.

The first difference between The Winds of Altair and Avatar is the lack of the clear cut distinction between good and evil in Bova’s book. Rather than an evil corporation bent on min- ing some miracle mineral at all costs a group of young students is transported deep into space to terraform a planet that will be their new home.

Over subsequent decades, scientists and social scientists increasingly applied the language of interconnection to such diverse collective forms as computer webs, terrorist networks, economic systems, and disease ecologies.

  • The Historical Role of the Corporation in Society
    Journal of the British Academy, 6(s1), 17–47. DOI https://doi.org/10.5871/jba/006s1.017 Posted 17 December 2018; Pre-print posted 31 October 2018. © The British Academy 2018 The historical role of the corporation in society LEONARDO DAVOUDI, CHRISTOPHER McKENNA and ROWENA OLEGARIO Abstract: This article charts the historical role of the corporation in society from antiquity to the present day. Using a broad temporal and transnational approach, it argues that social purpose has been a defining trait of the corporation since the con- cept of legal personhood first appeared in antiquity. The direct connection between incorporation and social purpose formally broke in the 19th century, when countries like the United Kingdom and United States introduced general incorporation laws. Yet many corporations continued to act positively on behalf of society on a voluntary basis, but even as they acted against the interests of workers, consumers, and the environment. This article demonstrates that concerns about corporate power have a long history, and that societies over time have designed a variety of legal systems and forms of corporate governance to address these concerns. Keywords: Corporation, business, social purpose, corporate social responsibility, company, philanthropy, social welfare, charity, business history, economic history. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This paper charts the historical role of the corporation in society from antiquity to the present day. It argues that, since the dawn of legal personhood, social purpose has been the defining trait of the corporation. This connection was formally broken in the 19th century through general incorporation laws, but many corporations continued to impact society positively on a voluntary basis.

    Welcome Thatch Durbin (Chair, Clockwork Alchemy) When I got involved in the local steampunk community six years ago, I never imagined that I would stand on the brink of a third year as Chair of Clockwork Alchemy. Yet, here I am, and I stand in amazement at what has been accomplished by the efforts of so many in the steampunk community. Working so closely with so many has been enlightening and I find that as Clockwork Alchemy changes and grows it mirrors the lives of those who volunteer so much of their time to make it happen. As we grow and change we hope to embody the spirit and hope that are steampunk. We invite you to partake in these while continuing to enjoy all that you have come to love about Clockwork Alchemy. We have taken over the onsite Club this year for Friday night’s Cabaret and various events and lessons throughout the rest of the weekend. Other changes this year will include having two live bands at Emperor Norton’s Ball, live jam sessions with the musical guests, a full-blown fashion show, an expanded Artist’s Gallery, a larger room with new sets for The Alchemist Tea Parlour, the expansion of the Martial Arts track into a larger space (now dubbed The War Room), and a myriad of new fixtures and sets to inspire and entertain. With this year’s theme, Alternate Empires, we hoped to embody some of the diversity and the creative culture of the steampunk community. We are honored to be joined this year by many creative and talented individuals.

Signature of Candidate: Type of Award: PhD School: Health Abstract: Towards a Global Ethics: The Debate on Nanotechnology in the European Union and China The primary aim of the thesis is to assess whether ethical governance of Science and Technology is feasible as a global approach, using the example of nanotechnology. The thesis firstly compares ethical issues identified by stakeholders in China and the EU relating to the rapid introduction of a potentially transformative technology, namely nanotechnology. Part One of this thesis explores how the ‘narratives’ of nanotechnology differ in each region, particularly given their different bioethics contexts, and examines how specific concerns translate into policymaking. In questioning whether Eastern and Western approaches to nanotechnology governance can be aligned, one can observe that Europe is increasingly co- operating and competing with China. Such new interdependences between global actors require new global approaches to S&T policy, including ethical governance.

  • Introduction Reclaiming Enemy-Occupied Territory: Saving Middle-Earth, Narnia, Westeros, Panem, Endor, and Gallifrey
    Introduction Reclaiming Enemy-Occupied Territory: Saving Middle-earth, Narnia, Westeros, Panem, Endor, and Gallifrey I used to think the top environmental problems were biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse, and climate change. I thought that with thirty years of good science we could address those problems. But I was wrong. The top environmental problems are selfishness, greed, and apathy, and to deal with those we need a spiritual and cultural transformation. And we scientists don’t know how to do that. —Gus Speth, founder, Natural Resources Defense Council The struggle of justice against oppression, hope against despair, is hard. But it has long been the work of humanists, and of literature in particular, to put before the world both terms in each of these dyads—justice as well as oppression, hope as well as despair—to help people commit to the first in each case. It is out of fashion to say this, but it is nonetheless true: liberal activist texts have transformative power. They play a profound role in the fight for human justice and planetary healing that so many of us recognize as the urgent struggle of our time. Words on the page more than reach our minds. They call up our feelings. They call out our spirits. They move us to act. —Elizabeth Ammons, Brave New Words: How Literature Will Save the Planet Margaret Atwood and the Newfound Importance of Climate Fiction In “Climate Fiction: Can Books Save the Planet?” (August 14, 2015), Atlantic columnist J. K. Ullrich described the unexpected rise of popularity of “cli-fi,” a subgenre of speculative fiction created by Jules Verne in the nineteenth century, further developed by J.
