LSE Media Futures | Opening Plenary | Remembering Mediapolis: Media Morality and Disrupted Futures

We are living in turbulent and increasingly dangerous times which are defined and influenced by the things we study and research, namely media, communication infrastructures, algorithms, and data. Faced with an uncertain future, we can discern both dystopian and optimistic scenarios. In the former, we need critique and ethical norms and values to validate those critiques. Regarding the latter, alternative imaginaries of hope, social justice and solidarity need to be developed or indeed rejuvenated. In our 20th anniversary conference, we aim to address both the critiques of the present and to consider and imagine alternative pathways.
