Politics for greater liberty: transhumanist perspectives
Online event about transhumanism hosted by London Futurists
20-Jun-2020
In a time of widespread anxiety about social unrest and perceived growing inequalities, what political approach is likely to ensure the greatest liberty?

What does the emerging philosophy of transhumanism, with its vision of conscious life evolving under thoughtful human control beyond the current human form, have to say about potential political interventions?
