Prometheus and Gaia: Technology, Ecology and Anti-Humanism

By Harrison Fluss and Landon Frim

Book Overview

Prometheus and Gaia explores two currents in contemporary politics: a Futurism which sees boundless technology as a salvific force and an Eco-Pessimism which sees human innovation as inherently destructive. While apparent opposites, these two currents share in common a rejection of Enlightenment humanism, or the idea that politics should fit the human frame.
