Popis: | We are said to be living in a time of multiple failures and crises (climate, biodiversity, health, inequality – to name a few now in the headlines) all playing out within a fast changing world. Behind the grand narratives of planetary boundaries and Anthropocene, is a world of increasing injustice and inequitable relationships – between humans and between humans and more-than human life. If our dominant systems fail to change, the unravelling of an existential crisis seems increasingly certain. Taking this, and much else, into account, a series of global policy agendas are combining to make a strong case for transformative change, through the rethinking of the so-called ‘human-nature relationship’.5 Indeed, we might say that the ‘Covid crisis’ has made the case for this irresistible, as well as opening up hitherto sealed doors of possibility to alternative pasts, presents and futures. |
