Climate overshoot, technological acceleration and end-time fascism: Modernity is propelling the entire human race towards the brink of destruction. To deal with the crises at hand, Dipesh Chakratbarty argues, we need to find ways to go beyond the entrenched thought systems, structures of domination and material infrastructures that separate us from each other as well as from the web of life we belong to. Known for his contributions to decolonial thought, the historian later turned towards Earth System Science, arguing for the decentering of human agency and rethinking of politics from beyond the human vantage point. Dipesh Chakratbarty joins Dissens to talk about the project of provincializing humanity, degrowth for the uber rich and the indigineous experience as a source for planetary liberation.
