    Anthropocene

    The concept of the Anthropocene refers to the geological epoch dating from the disruption of planetary boundaries and ecosystems caused by human activities. Some researchers in decolonial and feminist studies are not satisfied with this concept. For Malcom Ferdinand, it erases colonial history, the damage caused by nuclear testing, mining, and the exploitation of soils and subsoils in a context of domination over the global South. Researchers Donna Haraway and Anna Tsing instead prefer the terms Capitalocene or Plantationocene: the modifications to our environment would not be caused by all humans but by practices linked to capitalism or to plantation economy models “of capital accumulation built upon the backs of enslaved human beings”. Donna Haraway also evokes the Chthulucene, to account for the interweaving of multiple temporalities, of forces that are simultaneously human, non-human but also more than human and inhuman.
