The Earth has entered a new era: the Anthropocene. What we are facing is not just an environmental crisis, but a geological revolution of human origin. In two centuries, our planet has transformed into a state unknown for millions of years.
How did we get to this point? Refuting the convenient view of a “human species” that disrupted the geological system of the Earth without knowing what it was doing, this book offers the first critical history of the Anthropocene, overturning many accepted ideas: regarding the supposed recent “environmental awareness,” previous challenges to industrialization, the production of ignorance and consumerism, the so-called energy transitions, as well as the role of the military in environmental destruction.
In a dialogue between science and history, “The Shock of the Anthropocene” analyzes a new theoretical term and explores pathways for life and political action in this rapidly evolving geological era.
