Labor and labor norms orient much of contemporary life, organizing
our days and years and driving planetary environmental change. Yet,
labor, as a foundational set of values and practices, has not been
sufficiently interrogated in the context of the environmental
humanities for its profound role in climate change and other
crises. This collection of essays demonstrates the urgent need to
rethink models and customs of labor and leisure in the
Anthropocene. Recognizing the grave traumas and hazards plaguing
planet Earth, contributors expose fundamental flaws in ideas of
work and search for ways to redirect cultures toward more
sustainable modes of life. These essays evaluate Anthropocene
frames of interpretation, dramatize problems and potentials in
regimes of labor, and explore leisure practices such as walking and
storytelling as modes of recasting life, while a coda advocates
reviving notions of work as craft.
