Vortrag
After outlining what Samir Gandesha and Steve Collis call the "State of Extraction" - the inter-relation between practices of resource extraction, economy, state, and climate change - he concludes with a defence of the concept of the Anthropocene insofar as it could be said to, implicitly if not explicitly, underlie Indigenous resistance to extractivism.
