In <em>Automation and the Future of Work <\/em>he challenges the popular argument that \u2018the rise of the robots\u2019 will bring an end to work, heralding either a realm of freedom or mass unemployment and misery for all. Instead, Benanav identifies eco\u00adno\u00admic structures that drive both the loss of jobs (or slower creation of new jobs) and technological development. Based on these long-term trends, he asks: How would a post-scarcity society be organized?<\/p>\n<p>In this event, we ask Aaron Benanav to extend his analysis to help us think about the valorization of nature in green capitalist projects such as the \u2018Bioeconomy\u2019, including biotechnology, high-tech forestry, agriculture, and food production. We will discuss how the trends Benanav identifies in global economies relate to developments in our use of nature, human work, and ideas about green growth. We will also ask what possi\u00adbilities and challenges new technologies and economic structures pose for a different society organized around human needs rather than profits.<\/p>\n<p>Aaron Benanav is the author of <em>Automation and the Future of Work<\/em>. He is currently a researcher at the Humboldt University of Berlin. In August 2022, Benanav will begin a new position as Assistant Professor in the Department of Socio\u00adlo\u00adgy at Syracuse University, where he will also serve as one of the core faculty members at SU\u2019s Auto\u00adno\u00admous Systems Policy Institute.<\/p>\n<p>The Public Lecture Series is hosted by the BioMaterialities Research Group at Humboldt University. The conversation with Aaron Benanav will be led by Miriam Boyer and Johannes Fehrle.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[source of picture: pexels.com]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The talk is the first event of the Public Lecture Series High-Tech Valorization of Nature: Work, (Re)production, Technology, and Politics in Green Capitalist Projects Link for the Zoom Event: https:\/\/hu-berlin.zoom.us\/j\/69481226452&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2870,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","categories":[39],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Public Lecture Series: Automation, Post-Scarcity, and Work\u2014What is at Stake for Green Capitalist Projects?
