Challenging the dominant narrative of the Anthropocene, Resisting the Wasteocene highlights wasting relationships that produce both wasted people and ecosystems. This book exposes how such relationships seek to turn communities into socioecological dumps, while also tracing their forms of resistance.

Across case studies from Eastern Europe, Bangladesh, China, Senegal, Cuba, Italy, and more-and drawing on history, anthropology, cultural studies, and geography-it maps the toxic infrastructures that silence and normalize injustice. With its global, interdisciplinary scope and provocative critique of Anthropocene discourse, this volume makes the Wasteocene visible while opening possible pathways for resisting and escaping it.
