The geologic now of the Anthropocene
The problematic of globalization allows us to read
climate change only as a crisis of capitalist management. While there is no
denying that climate change has profoundly to do with the history of capital, a critique that is only a critique of capital is not sufficient for addressing questions relating to human history once the crisis of climate change
has been acknowledged and the Anthropocene has begun to loom on the
horizon of our present. The geologic now of the Anthropocene has become
entangled with the now of human history.
