In doing so, I argue that they interrogate the liberal ideals on which the Chilean Republic was founded and that continue to shape the nation’s insertion into a global capitalist economy. Jorge Baradit (Valparaíso, 1969) is a writer of fantastic literature from Chile. Condensing trends in evidence across a wider body of science fiction writing in Latin America, Baradit and Ortega explore technology as consumption and as conspiracy, two contexts in which the region is placed in a position of dependency within the global circulation of goods and knowledge. While spiritual and occultic practices have often been conceived as diametrically opposed to the rational, objective and universalist pretensions of modern science, these texts demonstrate the extent to which they share a similar animus. Both writers explore the geopolitics of technology through the introduction of elements of the paranormal, the occult, and indigenous or popular myth, and by hybridizing the science fiction genre with the alternative history and the conspiracy thriller.
