Landscapes and Territories in the Anthropocene. Literary and cultural perspectives of representation in the Americas
In recent years, the so-called 'Anthropocene' has not only been focused within earth system studies. It has become a central theme in current discourses in the field of cultural studies, political debates, and the literatures and arts of the Americas. Addressed are global environmental phenomena such as climate change, the decline of biodiversity or the increasing exploitation of non-renewable resources of the earth, which in Latin America are discussed under the title '(neo)-extractivism'.

Vivir en y contra el Antropoceno: epistemologías, dimensiones y alternativas desde América Latina
El Antropoceno es un concepto que se podría considerar polisémico. Por un lado, engloba y sintetiza las múltiples dimensiones de la crisis socioambiental que atraviesa el planeta, y que es, además, una crisis civilizatoria aparejada al fracaso del proyecto moderno. Por otro lado, es un concepto puente, tiende a eliminar o matizar las concepciones binarias que históricamente han naturalizado la supuesta separación ontológica entre sociedad y naturaleza.

León Enrique Avila Romero: Alternativas al colapso socioambiental desde América Latina
Latin America is facing a serious environmental crisis, which is leading the subcontinent to a collapse, understood as a shift in society and in the current way of living. This ecological crisis has been intensified by the entrenchment of the neo-liberal economic model and neo-extractivism, which has led to a dispute over common goods.
