Denis Newiak
Englisch | Taschenbuch

Dead phones, chaos in hospitals, looming nuclear meltdowns: For years, experts all over the world have been warning of a widespread power blackout¿and the devastating consequences for society as a whole. However, just as before the Covid-19 pandemic, politicians and the public are hardly aware of the far-reaching risks: A blackout would catch us almost completely unprepared.As for other (supposedly improbable) disruptive events, disaster movies and sci-fi series have long shown what would happen if modern society were to lose its lifeblood. Denis Newiak looks into those filmic fictions for answers to pressing questions:How can we prepare ourselves for the dramatic consequences of such a crisis? And can the collapse of modernity still be stopped? (lib)

Blackout - nichts geht mehr
Blackout - nichts geht mehr
Denis Newiak
Tote Telefone, Chaos in Krankenhäusern, drohende Kernschmelzen: Seit Jahren warnen Experten überall auf der Welt vor der wachsenden Gefahr eines flächendeckenden Stromausfalls - und den verheerenden Konsequenzen für die gesamte Gesellschaft. So wie vor der Corona-Pandemie sind sich Politik und Bevölkerung jedoch kaum der Risiken bewusst, der Blackout würde uns vollkommen unvorbereitet treffen. Katastrophenfilme und Scifi-Serien hingegen zeigen seit Langem, was droht, wenn der modernen Gesellschaft ihr Lebenselixier abhandenkommt. Denis Newiak sucht in den fiktionalen Geschichten nach Antworten auf die drängenden Fragen, wie wir uns - individuell und als Gesellschaft - für die einschneidenden Folgen dieser Krise wappnen können. Lässt sich die Apokalypse der Moderne noch aufhalten?
