Résumé :

With inspiration from a long correspondence with Isabelle Stengers, this post-script imagines the chapters of Southern Anthropocenes as partial responses to an important question: what tales will we leave the children of tomorrow? Will they be poisonous or help to keep dreams alive and cultivate the divergent forces they will need in a changing world? Many scenes in the book show contacts and relations as catalysts of consequences that cannot be anticipated or appropriated. The scenes do not converge, but they might come together as a confluence rather than end in a collision. That would situate our contributors – along with others – as story traders collectively embracing the unknown and inventing portals for worlds to come.
