| Итог: | This contribution aims at reactivating the charming idea of ‘angelic economics’ launched in a reflective note by Laszlo Zsolnai in 2015. In the first section we explore the role of angels in theology and arts and focus on the Annunciation as a paradigmatic scene to understand their meaning. The second section deals with the enigmatic presence of future generations who do not exist but, on the other hand, have a moral voice and a moral impact. Can we consider angels as representatives of future generations? The third section distinguishes three models of exploring the future: (1) scientific prediction models (2) utopian and dystopian blueprints and (3) spiritual methods of representing the future. The main point in this section is: to what extent do these models give space to the voice of future generations? |
