This book reflects the considerable appeal of the Anthropocene and
the way it stimulates new discussions and ideas for reimagining
sustainability and its place in education in these precarious
times. The authors explore these new imaginings for sustainability
using varying theoretical perspectives in order to consider
innovative ways of engaging with concepts that are now influencing
the field of sustainability and education. Through their
theoretical analysis, research and field work, the authors explore
novel approaches to designing sustainability and sustainability
education. These approaches, although diverse in focus, all
highlight the complex interdependencies of the human and
more-than-human world, and by unpacking binaries such as
human/nature, nature/culture, subject/object and de-centring the
human expose the complexities of an entangled human-nature relation
that are shaping our understanding of sustainability. These messy
relations challenge the well-versed mantras of anthropocentric
exceptionalism in sustainability and sustainability education and
offer new questions rather than answers for researchers, educators,
and practitioners to explore. As working with new theoretical
lenses is not always easy, this book also highlights the authors'
methods for approaching these ideas and imaginings.
