Περιγραφή
Περίληψη:The current, unprecedented scale of the global environmental crisis has given rise over the last ten years to an efflorescence of ecological anxieties, which have gradually been subsumed under the term ecoanxiety. This type of anxiety belongs to the Freudian category of “anxiety in the face of real danger”, a reaction to external danger. In this sense, it is an adapted form of anxiety, quite distinct from neurotic anxiety. And yet, it is likely to become disabling on an individual level, in a world in which denial and derealisation seem to be the most widespread collective response. This is no doubt due to the fact that this devastation raises profound questions about our own destructiveness: for what psychic reasons have human beings attacked the Earth itself, even though we depend so drastically on maintaining its ecosystems for our survival? Are we witnessing the unleashing of death drives, or a new catastrophic outcome of the conflict between man and culture?
