Jens Schröter on imaginary economics, the Star Trek replicator, and a world without money
In this episode, we’ll be discussing imagined economies, and how picturing a different future - such as by reading science fiction books or watching a few episodes of Star Trek - can open up new possibilities for living. My guest today is Jens Schröter, who is the chair for media studies at the University of Bonn in Germany. We'll be talking about everything from 3D printing and cups of tea made out of antimatter to what a world without money would look like.
