摘要

Purpose - This paper aims to depict how the state of inverted totalitarianism is emerging in post-postnormal times and illustrate how it shares many of the same features of the totalitarianism depicted in the novels Brave New World (A. Huxley) and 1984 (G. Orwell). It also shows how a "way forward" is possible through a paradigmatic reorientation of "well-being" and "happiness". Design/methodology/approach - The research is based on literature within the field of futures studies, as well as relevant sources outside the futures field. It applies R Slaughter's critical futures and F Polak's method of social critique and reconstruction in its analysis of the state of inverted totalitarianism in post postmodern times. Findings - It finds that the technological society and the US empire (with its attendant corporatocracy, Panopticon and PAC man values) in post-postnormal times is drifting toward a state of inverted totalitarianism, which is remarkably beginning to resemble Aldous Huxley's Brave New World and G. Orwell's 1984. Research limitations/implications - The research is an essay and conceptual paper, so it is limited by its conceptual, philosophical nature and the author's interpretation of social phenomena. It could also include the latest research on the role that the manipulation of internet algorithms plays in the state of inverted totalitarianism. It could also include more reconstructive details. Practical implications - Sheer consciousness of the state of inverted totalitarianism and the need for social reconstruction should lead to a reevaluation of the meaning of the good society and how to realize it. Social implications - Social critique and reconstruction are essential to the survival of any given society or civilization, as the groundwork for the emergence of wise foresight. The creative minority of a civilization must understand its predicament, the nature of its civilizational crisis, before it can even begin to understand and meet the challenge of the future. Originality/value - The paper presents post-postnormal times as the back drop through which a state of inverted totalitarianism is emerging - a social dystopia that resembles the dystopias depicted in the novels, Brave New World and 1984. Inverted totalitarianism is shown to be an outgrowth of the technological society and the American empire (a corporatocracy and Panopticon increasingly global in nature). Freedom from this emerging totalitarianism begins with the realization of its existence and its given assumptions about the meaning of life and the pursuit of happiness. The paper also posits social critique and reconstruction (as well as critical futures) as a fundamental method to deconstruct and reconstruct the paradigm that supports inverted totalitarianism.
机译:目的-本文旨在描述后极权主义时代后反向极权主义的状态如何出现,并说明它如何与小说《勇敢的新世界》(A.Huxley)和1984年(G.奥威尔)。它还显示了如何通过“幸福”和“幸福”的范式重新定位来实现“前进”。设计/方法/方法-该研究基于期货研究领域的文献以及期货领域以外的相关资源。它在分析后现代时代后的极权主义的倒退状态时,运用了斯洛克(R Slaughter)的批判性未来和弗波拉克(F Polak)的社会批判与重建方法。调查结果-研究发现,在后正常时期后的技术社会和美国帝国(伴随着法人主义,泛opticon和PAC的人的价值观)正朝着极权主义倒置的状态漂移,这种状态明显开始类似于奥尔多斯·赫x黎的《勇敢的新世界》和G. Orwell的1984年。研究局限性/含义-该研究是一篇论文和概念性论文,因此受到其概念,哲学性质和作者对社会现象的解释的限制。它还可能包括有关互联网算法操纵在反向极权主义状态下所起的作用的最新研究。它还可能包含更多的重建细节。实际意义-对极权主义倒置状态的纯粹意识和对社会重建的需求应导致对善良社会的意义及其实现方式的重新评估。社会影响-社会批判和重建对于任何给定的社会或文明的生存都是必不可少的,这是产生明智远见的基础。富有创造力的少数群体必须先了解其困境,文明危机的性质,然后才能开始理解并应对未来的挑战。原创性/价值-本文将后正常时期作为倒退的极权主义状态出现的背景时间-一种类似于小说《勇敢的新世界》和1984中描述的反乌托邦的社会反乌托邦。倒置的极权主义被证明是一种倒退的极权主义。技术社会和美国帝国的崛起(法团制和Panopticon本质上日益全球化)。从这种新兴的极权主义的自由始于实现其存在以及对生活意义和追求幸福的既定假设。本文还提出社会批判和重建(以及关键的未来),作为解构和重建支持反向极权主义的范式的基本方法。
