#94 After the capitalocene w/ Rosie Warren

What will come after the capitalocene - and is that even the right
term to describe our geological era? Rosie Warren joins me to talk
about 'The Tragedy of the Worker: Towards the Proletarocene' - an
essay coauthored by Rosie that considers the entwined processes of
climate change and the proletarianisation of the world's
population. We talked about the debate over whether to describe our
geological age as the anthropocene or the capitalocene and we also
discussed Walter Benjamin's notion of capitalism as a "cultic
religion".
