The Next Prison Cell: Five Figures Of The Time To Come This contribution takes the famous Prisoner's Dilemma as its starting point in order to think about generational responsibility to futures not yet present. The cell next door, a figure of otherness, is brought back to a temporal figure, defined as the unthought par excellence of the market economy. The movement to move from a thought of spatiality to a reflection on time, thus on duration and sustainability, is articulated in five moments (Marinetti's Manifesto, the Deleuzian reading of Nietzsche, Bergsonian indications of method, Musil's doubts, the action of Pussy Riot), whose role is to guide through the three syntheses of time. In order to move from the total war promoted by futurism to the need to build social horizons capable of duration (cfr. Braidotti, 2017), it is indeed necessary to move from the capitalist paradigm of accumulation to ethical thought, whose field of pertinence does not lay on a spatial perimeter, but is actually time. Only within this field in fact will the concept of vulnerability no longer lead to the paralysis of action, but rather to a thought of sustainability
