The status of the Anthropocene, both as a geoscientific concept and as a cultural concept becoming increasingly familiar in the public sphere, has been highly controversial. While geoscientists focus on possible geological markers and periodisation, the social sciences, environmental humanities, and creative arts have taken up the Anthropocene as a cultural concept to make sense of the planetary environmental crisis and contemporary society. This book documents intra-, inter-, and transdisciplinary debates, particularly, although not limited to, how different scholarly disciplines have responded to the Anthropocene proposal. The authors analyse how the AWG has become the focal point of a debate that straddles the boundaries between academic disciplines and public perceptions of science. The AWG thus serves as a case of the globalisation of science in terms of the global interconnectedness of scientific disciplines and the cultural significance of the Anthropocene proposal. 410 0$aEmerging Globalities and Civilizational Perspectives,$x2731-0639 606 $aScience$xSocial aspects 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aTechnology$xSociological aspects 606 $aHuman ecology 606 $aBioclimatology 606 $aHuman ecology$xStudy and teaching 606 $aSociology of Science 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aScience, Technology and Society 606 $aEnvironmental Anthropology 606 $aClimate Change Ecology 606 $aEnvironmental Studies 615 0$aScience$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aTechnology$xSociological aspects. 615 0$aHuman ecology. 615 0$aBioclimatology. 615 0$aHuman ecology$xStudy and teaching. 615 14$aSociology of Science. 615 24$aGlobalization. 615 24$aScience, Technology and Society. 615 24$aEnvironmental Anthropology. 615 24$aClimate Change Ecology. 615 24$aEnvironmental Studies. 676 $a303.483 700 $aBohle$b Martin$0851910 701 $aHolzer$b Boris$01790249 701 $aSklair$b Leslie$0119667 701 $aWill$b Fabienne$01790250 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910984686103321 996 $aThe Anthropocene Working Group and the Global Debate Around a New Geological Epoch$94326322 997 $aUNINA
