Environmental History in Schools: The Anthropocene and Us
This essay uses history as a key to access the environmental issue and the Anthropocene as a concept on which to hinge the history of the relationship between humankind and the environment, proposing it be used in education. It begins by analysing how environmental themes are dealt
with in international school textbooks. It then moves on to the Anthropocene, the new age in which man candidates himself as a geological agent, dwelling on the theme of climate change and on the co-evolutionary process between social orders and natural systems. It offers the most recent historical
readings of the Anthropocene, elaborating its dating and the numerous visions of the world the Anthropocene opens up. The essay ends with considerations on methodology and with some suggestions for teaching environmental history.
期刊介绍:
The half-yearly journal Global Environment: A Journal of History and Natural and Social Sciences acts as a forum and echo chamber for ongoing studies on the environment and world history, with special focus on modern and contemporary topics. Our intent is to gather and stimulate scholarship that, despite a diversity of approaches and themes, shares an environmental perspective on world history in its various facets, including economic development, social relations, production government, and international relations. One of the journal’s main commitments is to bring together different areas of expertise in both the natural and the social sciences to facilitate a common language and a common perspective in the study of history. This commitment is fulfilled by way of peer-reviewed research articles and also by interviews and other special features. Global Environment strives to transcend the western-centric and ‘developist’ bias that has dominated international environmental historiography so far and to favour the emergence of spatially and culturally diversified points of view. It seeks to replace the notion of ‘hierarchy’ with those of ‘relationship’ and ‘exchange’ – between continents, states, regions, cities, central zones and peripheral areas – in studying the construction or destruction of environments and ecosystems.
