Our Special Issue 15.2 Beyond Climate Change Information: Communicating the Anthropocene is now out. This brand new issue gathers together outstanding contributions to the field of climate change communication and the Anthropocene, understood as an upfolding social construct, a concept in progress that has been built through communicative processes.
I would like to thank Dr. Jordi Prades-Tena, Dr. Arturo Vallejos-Romero and Dr. Volker Mauerhofer for their hard work on this issue, which explores the concept of the Anthropocene through both the analysis of classical and digital media (press, cinema, YouTube and Twitter) as well as through philosophy and law.
Here you’ll find more information on the issue:
