The utopian essence of modernity was centred on a triumvirate—built on the congruence between the sovereign state, the techno-science establishment, and the globalized market economy. This triangle of power has commodified nature and created a fragmented, pragmatic, and operative world culture, which has led us to the crossroads we are collectively facing. The Anthropocene, from a philosophical point of view, is thus the time of the emergence of a dystopia that was born, not from any piecemeal feature of modern history, but from the uncritical and disproportionate fulfilment of modern utopian agendas.
