Walter C. Swap, Dean of the Colleges

In a cross-fertilization of disciplines, we will probe research from artificial intelligence, biology, economics, engineering, environmental studies, ethics, international relations, medicine, music, philosophy, sociology, theoretical physics, virtual real- ity and beyond -- to examine possible scenarios of the near future to determine which ones are most promising or most threatening in their implications.

With strategists and physicists; “cyberiuns” and geneticists; astronomers and historians; game theorists and theologians, we will explore:

Will the future emerge as a utopian “neo-biological civilization” merging humans and’machines into a “global superorganism,” or as an increas- ingly desperate, dystopic global anarchy? How will changes in the intersection between science and technology and international politics influence the future of the international system? With the impending surge in world population, what new burdens be placed on global social equity? What will be the nature of economic interdependence in 2020? What constitutes a sustainable future for the globe? How accurate are the projections of population growth, environmental degradation, global warming?

Are we entering the “Pacific Century?” What are the scientific, ethical, legal and social implications of new technologies? Of the Human Genome Initiative Project? What does the future hold for pandemics such as AIDS and other public health issues in an alleged era of “Darwinian medicine?’ What are the prospects for race and gender relations? What will evolve from the convergence of psychology, and neuro- and computer sciences? Will we get any closer to understanding the origins and fate of our universe? How are these concerns reflected and understood in popular culture?
