Abstract (EN): "(...) besides all this speculative ultimate attempt of peeking into the future, and beyond any functionalist, metaphysical or pragmatist point of view, it’s now visible for everyone that we are in an moment of enormous civilizational leap, that, much like the Hegelian process of self-consciousness, Cyberpolitics is the affirmation of that transitional stage. The impact of a paradigm shift is always fertile ground for the savagery of our imagination, and YouTube, in the erosion between private and public sphere, will certainly be a tremendous archive for academic research: conspiracy theories, political-science fictions like exopolitics, world government, the exploration of space and human colonies, other civilizations and the Kardashev scale, and the entire unknown and uncertainty we are entering. And there are no risks without courage, fear and hope. Let’s hope we live up to the challenges we are facing, in the certainty that life can be understood backwards, but can only be lived forward. - in "Foreword", by Constantino Pereira Martins.
