  Humanimal alliances in the Anthropocene era: conspiracies, games and resistances

  The Anthropocene, originally defined as a new geological era marked by planetary changes originating in human agency, has entered the humanities over time, bringing together a set of crucial debates today. One of them refers to the relationship that the human animal establishes with the rest of animals and living beings, especially after the awareness of the series of mass extinctions caused by the aggression of the modern economic system on all habitats. In this context, a growing number of literary works in Spanish are showing varied ways of representing the crisis of the Anthropocene/Capitalocene, also thematizing innovative forms of resistance. One of them, motivated by the so-called animal turn (Abram, 1997; Weil, 2012; Wolfe, 2003), has reflected on the need to explore multispecies alliances between humans and non-humans when it comes to articulating more compatible imaginaries with a common future. As Donna Haraway (2007; 2016) has pointed out, the current crisis demands a review of power relations between humans and other beings, rethinking the balance of forces in a less anthropocentric way, resizing human exceptionality and exploring post-anthropocentric identity possibilities and multispecies resistance.
