Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

In Anthropocene, the Earth system is so altered by anthropogenic impact that human beings, in turn, see their condition of existence fundamentally transformed and entirely questioned. This article analyses the way in which convivialism considers such an alteration of humanity to the point of proposing a concrete alternative vision of Humanism, in other words an alterhumanism that brings innovative responses in the fields of politics, ethics and education of new generations.
