Synopsis

This wide-ranging volume addresses the changing landscape of problems, challenges, and possibilities that emerge once the macroscopic notion of the Anthropocene is replaced with Southern Anthropocenes. It envisions Southern Anthropocenes as an opening towards forms and ends of life that exceed--while remaining in partial relation with--modern socio-economic horizons and the determinations of the geo-, eco-, and climate sciences.

What happens if Southern Anthropocenes are allowed to multiply, and room is made for practices of worlding and life that are impossible from within the singular Anthropocene?

Key issues include emergent interfaces between beings, ways of living, and worlds; problems of co-existence in and across pluriversal contact zones; explorations of liveability under rapidly changing circumstances; speculations about other futures and how to invent them; investigations of more-than-human itineraries and entangled territories; and explorations of how to collectively invent the portals between ways of thinking and acting on a planet in a critical state. It will be essential reading for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in Sociology, Anthropology, Critical Education, Environmental Humanities, Science and Technology Studies, Geography, and Urban Studies.
