Eleventh International Conference on The Constructed Environment

Abstract

Modernism was the end of human history and postmodernism was the end of history, and the realization of Anthropocene was the end of postmodernism and the displacement in the history and placement in a geological era. An ancient intervention was organized with agricultural development and faded with modernism’s inventions and capitalism, and thanks to extensive technologies in postmodernism, led to the emergence of neoliberalism and the production of dirty energies and carbon emissions worldwide. Humans have changed the planet and faced the world with catastrophic environmental destruction. Anthropocene allows us to re-examine the relationship between humans and the natural world. How can we become more conscious of our activities without harming nature; activities that are positive and purposive and can consciously change the world? Now it is time that we showed that human and non-human species are like intertwined and interdependent branches. We must help to recreate and revitalize the environment. This empowerment in Anthropocene requires sustainability in culture and ethics. This study aims to create laws that will change human behavior and cultivate morality at the local and global levels, planners and urban engineers need to design the city whereby the environment is placed at the center of their vision. Disciplinary anthropology should be used as a diverse blend of individuals with cultural backgrounds and through emerging technologies, smart city, and green political theory, prevent individual democracy that governs human relations rather than nature by eliminating humanistic thought and human inequality. As such, Earth will remain stable.
