• Sommario/riassunto: Alliances in the Anthropocene examines how human impacts on the planetary system are being felt at all levels, from the geological and the arboreal to the atmospheric. Christine Eriksen and Susan Ballard examine the agency of fire, plants and people within a changing climate. They embrace the narratives of bushfire survivors and responses of contemporary artists, as practice and experience become interwoven with fire, ruin and regrowth. From Aboriginal ecocultural burning and wildfire to nuclear fire, the authors show how relationships come to be and are likely to change due to human and non-human interdependencies in the Anthropocene.
