How to Build a World
Metadata
Highlights
- But, in fact, the process of fictional world building offers a unique, real-world opportunity: to understand that politics, in a broad sense, is an ongoing negotiation about the shape of collective life; to understand that all worlds are built and affected by humans, and, therefore, the power of agency of all stripes is in our hands.
- The real world is built through distributed decisions and systems, while fictional worlds are built when features are described.
- collaborative world building offers the further possibility of assessing the ways worlds exist among people.
