- The Anthropocene originates from natural science, but the concept has during a relatively short period of time managed to spread into other domains. As this volume shows, the time has now also come to the field of tourism studies. In my understanding, this evolving ‘Anthropocene turn’ across the sciences and the humanities is a set of mapping expeditions which have in common that they explore assumptions and consequences of earthly life and existence under the spell of geological forces, earthly boundaries and planetary limits. The quest for the map-maker is thus to decipher what the Anthropocene means, to which phenomena and state of affairs it refers, and to identify potential implications. The particular query to be addressed here is how tourism could enter and find a place in the grand Anthropocene and planetary scheme of things. Consequently, the exploratory aim of this chapter is to tentatively map out some of the issues and challenges that the concept of the Anthropocene poses for the theorization of tourism.
