Tecnopolítica con Asma Mhalla, Flavia Costa y Emilse Garzón

In a context marked by the expansion of digital technologies, this conversation proposes to analyze the relationships between technology, power, and politics in light of new forms of domination. In her book "Cyberpunk: The New Totalitarian System," Asma Mhalla describes the emergence of a hybrid regime in which technological and political power intertwine, giving rise to a form of "cognitive empire" capable of reshaping democracy and molding behavior on a global scale. Drawing inspiration from this vision (where dystopia is no longer fiction but reality), the dialogue addresses how platforms, artificial intelligence, and digital infrastructures can reinforce authoritarian dynamics, but also open spaces for resistance. Flavia Costa offers a philosophical perspective on these transformations and their social effects. Moderated by Emilse Garzón, this exchange invites critical reflection on the possible futures of our democracies in the digital age. Saturday, May 23, 5:00 p.m., CETC Participants: Asma Mhalla and Flavia Costa Moderator: Emilse Garzón
