Abstract

The concept of remedies and the practice of remedying are explored from philosophical, legal, and future heritage perspectives. These perspectives serve to assess the potential for transformative remedies and remedial transformation in the context of crises and their aftermaths, where establishing causality and proportionality is complex or hardly possible. Structured around eight key concerns—(1) Renaturation as a Remedy for the Near Future, (2) Deadly Cultural Heritage and Remedy Management, (3) Speculative Remedies in Deep Time, (4) “Atomic Priesthood” as Pharmakon-Remedy, (5) For Every Right a Remedy?, (6) Remedies to “Minimize the Inconvenience” and the Inconvenient Curiosity Drive, (7) Time Travel as Curative Remedy to Change History, and (8) Remedying Through More-Than-Human Entities—this contribution delves into the spectrum of ir/remediability, questioning conceptions of judicial remedies through considerations of a broader and multilayered conception of remedies, linked to non- and more-than-human approaches to time, witnessing, and reparation.
