Abstract

The Anthropocene is seen as a fundamental challenge and transformative moment for environmental governance. Embedded in Holocene institutions and ideas, the argument goes, existing concepts and practices of environmental governance can no longer be seen as an adequate response to the new reality of the Anthropocene. Rather, environmental governance must be reconsidered as Anthropocene governance. This chapter takes up and discusses these calls for a renewal of environmental governance in the Anthropocene. To this end, four fundamental challenges to environmental governance in the Anthropocene are described. Next, an overview of the various goals and means of Anthropocene governance is provided, and two particularly prominent approaches, "Earth System Governance" and "Ecological Reflexivity," are presented in more detail. Taking a critical perspective, two avenues for advancing the concept of Anthropocene governance are outlined.
