Project Book – Anthropocene and Eco-body
Anthropocene and Eco-body is a work selected as an excellent science book by the Korea Science
and Creativity Foundation in 2018, following Post-Humans Living on Earth and Post Body: There
Comes Lego Figure—each selected as an excellent science book by the Korea Science and Creativity
Foundation in 2019. This is the third 'post-human' series book of the Institute of Body and Culture,
dealing in depth with the problems of the body in the era of the “Anthropocene”. In particular, this
book carefully examines Paul J. Crutzen's concept of Anthropocene—which has been recently
attracting attention of the public worldwide - and rediscovers that our bodies already live in the era
of "eco-body" where humans and non-human beings make up a single body of nature altogether.
Based on this perspective, the Institute of Body and Culture specifically connects the problems of
“body burden” closely related to the daily life of modern people and problems caused by meat eating,
livestock industry, and plastics to our own bodies and lives: the book therefore shows us interestingly
an ethical alternative to wisely cope with the crisis regarding the 'Anthropocene'.
