MANIGLIER, Patrice; GERRARD, Ana Cecilia  y  SILLA, Rolando. ¿Cuántos Planetas Tierra? : El giro geológico en antropología. Avá [online]. 2016, n.29, pp.199-216. ISSN 1851-1694.

The following article seeks to move from the ontological to the geontological turn; going through current debates about ontology and anthropocene. Anthropology has been an attempt at defining a nonhegemonic “We”. Today, the “We” question is bound by the apparition of the Earth on the stage of history, as that which addresses and challenges “us all”. This provides anthropology with a new ground. In consequence, the ontological turn must become a geological turn: what the Earth is is really what anthropology is about. Anthropology is also best positioned to speak of the Earth, because it can do justice to the globality of this new actor without projecting it into any transcendent realm where it would exist over and beyond the variety of its own diverging versions.

Palabras clave : Ontological turn; Anthropocene; Earth.
