Democracy in the Anthropocene

501 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This open access volume bridges the so far rather disconnected debates on the crisis of democracy and the Anthropocene. The various, contradicting, but also entangled relations between democracy and the Anthropocene are the overarching theme. Across four sections, contributors probe the impasses and transformations of liberal modernity and navigate new political forms and democratic possibilities emerging in the Anthropocene: 1) crisis diagnoses, 2) conceptual reflections on the epistemic shifts of democratic politics in the Anthropocene, 3) concepts for governing in the Anthropocene and 4) (local) practices and innovations of democracy in the Anthropocene.

This book is an open access publication.
