Abstract

This chapter takes a closer look at the conceptual roots of the Anthropocene. Tracing the history of the Anthropocene concept helps in explaining how certain political imaginaries have found their way into new forms of Anthropocene governance. Using the approach of genealogy, it holds that the production of discourses is inherently tied to forms of political power. A genealogical perspective asks questions such as ‘How did it become possible to conceive of the Earth as an interlinked system and of humanity as a geological actor in the first place?’ In four sections, it first briefly summarizes the debate on the origins and historical predecessors of the Anthropocene concept, then introduces Foucault’s concept of genealogy and outlines an analytical framework to operationalize it. The third section illustrates how to use this approach in practice by taking the Whole Earth movement as an example. The concluding section summarizes the findings and discusses their relevance for International Relations.
