  • Anthropocene / Anthropocène / Anthropozän

    New geological period following the impact of human activities on the Earth system, the Anthropocene is at the same time a concept resulting from the Earth System Sciences and Geology, a political concept on the possible orientations of the human adventure, but also an ideological concept invested to generate social, economic and political changes. This collection integrates books (monographs or collective) from Earth System Sciences as well as from Environmental Humanities. In this collection the works raise the question of the future and its preparation in a period marked by uncertainty. The topics covered can be particularly varied, as, for example: stratigraphy of the Anthropocene, planetary boundaries, plastics, biogeochemical cycles... but also education, health, governance and democracy, the organization of contemporary societies and ecological changes, agriculture, urbanism, the stories of the Anthropocene, science fiction, or economic models. Nouvelle période géologique suite à l’impact des activités humaines sur le système Terre, l’Anthropocène est tout à la fois un concept issu des Sciences du système Terre et de la Géologie, un concept politique portant sur les orientations possibles de l’aventure humaine, mais aussi un concept idéologique investi pour générer des changements sociaux, économiques et politiques. Cette collection accueille des ouvrages (monographies ou collectifs) des Sciences du système Terre comme des Humanités environnementales. Les ouvrages de cette collection permettent de mettre au travail la question de l’avenir et de sa préparation dans une période marquée par l’incertitude. Les thématiques abordées peuvent être particulièrement variées, comme, à titre d’exemple : la stratigraphie de l’Anthropocène, les limites planétaires, les plastiques, les flux bio-géo-chimiques… mais aussi l’éducation, la santé, la gouvernance et la démocratie, l’organisation des sociétés contemporaines et les mutations écologiques, l’agriculture, l’urbanisme, les récits de l’Anthropocène en construction, la science-fiction, ou encore les modèles économiques. Als eine neue geologische Zeit aufgrund der Auswirkungen menschlicher Einflüsse auf das Erdsystem, ist das Anthropozän gleichzeitig ein Konzept, das aus den Erdsystemwissenschaften und aus der Geologie entwickelt wurde. Es handelt sich dabei auch um ein politisches Konzept, das sich mit den möglichen Strebungen des menschlichen Abenteuers befasst. Schließlich ist es ein ideologisches Konstrukt das für soziale, wirtschaftliche und politische Veränderungen genutzt wird. Die vorliegende Sammlung umfasst Bücher (Monographien oder mit mehreren Autoren) der Erdsystemwissenschaften und der Umweltwissenschaften. Die in dieser Sammlung enthaltenen Bücher stellen die Frage nach der Zukunft der Menschen und wie sie sich darauf in einer Zeit der Ungewissheit vorbereiten können. Die verarbeiteten Themen können sehr unterschiedlich sein, z. B.: Stratigraphie des Anthropozän, planetarische Grenzen, Kunststoffe, bio-geo-chemische Zyklen… aber auch Bildung, Gesundheit, Politik und Demokratie, Organisation von gegenwärtigen Gesellschaften, ökologische Mutationen, Landwirtschaft, Urbanismus und auch, was über das sich bildende Anthropozän bereits geschrieben wurde, Science-Fiction, oder Wirtschaftsmodelle.
