| Sumario: | The following work is based on an urgent question: What about tomorrow?, that is to say : Is there a future for us, for terrestrial beings in this third planet of our solar system?. Global warming and the disappearance of refugia that allows the development of multiple liveforms, such as human, not human as well as abiotic actors, create doubts concerning the possibility of having a shared future in the Earth. During the Anthropocene era, biocapitalism as a system that manages and regulates global ways of life, destroys not only choices in the present but also the minimal conditions of material sustainability, the futurability itself of the present. Criticism of the anthropocetric humanism, which states humans as unique beings with agency, becomes necessary in order to think in a posthuman future. From the analysis of the two Latin American science-fiction novels published in this new millennium, –Dark constellations (Oloixarac) and La segunda enciclopedia de Tlón (Meier)- we try to deal with these issues. The posthuman condition, which is a mere present refused by the Capital dream, means a deadly wound to the modern human. New outlooks open up whereby radical immanence means a redistribution of geohistory agents. |
