초록

2000년에 크루첸과 스토머에 의해 제안된 '인류세' 개념은 다수 학문분과에 큰 반향을 일으키고 있다. 21세기 인류(생명)가 대면하고 있는 생태-존재론적 비상상태에 대한 가장 강력한 문제제기인 인류세 담론에 대한 사회이론의 응답의 한 시도로서, 이 연구는 다음의 문제들을 다루고자 한다. 첫째, 인류세 담론의 핵심의제를 인간 행위능력의 행성적 신장과 임박한 파국이라는 관점에서 분석한다. 둘째, 인류세 담론을 들뢰즈와 가타리적 의미의 어셈블리지(문제-어셈블리지)로 이해하기를 제안한다. 셋째, 해밀턴과 차크라바티의 테제들을 분석함으로써, 인류세가 인문, 사회과학에 가져온 충격을 진단한다. 넷째, 발터 벤야민의 '역사의 천사' 이미지를 분석하고, 파국에 내포된 변형적 생성의 가능성을 감수능력, 혹은 페이션시(patiency) 개념을 중심으로 진단한다. 다섯째, 재귀적/성찰적 파국주의 개념을 제시하고, 파국에 대한 새로운 관점을 제안한다.

First proposed by Paul Crutzen and Eugene Stoermer in 2000, the concept of the Anthropocene has had staggering repercussions in a variety of disciplines. In response to the Anthropocene narrative as a problematization of the eco-ontological emergency that humanity is confronted with in the 21st-century, I will deal with the following theoretical themes in this article. Firstly, I will analyze the central agendas underlying the Anthropocene discourse: the expansion of human agency into the planetary level and the possibility of unprecedented catastrophes in the near future. Secondly, I will propose to address the Anthropocene discourse as problem-assemblage. Thirdly, I will examine Clive Himilton and Dipesh Chakrabarty's theses in order to understand the shock that was brought to bear on the humanities and social sciences by the Anthropocene narrative. Fourthly, I will reinterpret the allegory of the angel appearing in Benjamin's Theses on the Philosophy of History to explore new possibilities of transformative becoming of the subjectivity, focusing on the concept of patiency. Finally, I will present the concept of reflexive catastrophism.
