From the beginning of the history, humanity has dwelt on terra. They have changed places of non-habitat to that of habitat for more than tens of thousands years. Their praxis changed the terra, and, hence, it means that they changed the Earth. Under the new notion of the Anthropocene this process is being reexamined recently.
In this symposium and research colloquium dedicated to the publication of the Japanese translation of Augustin Berque’s book on habitation as one of the titles of RIHN Scientific Series, we examine the way humanity has lived and will live on our terra under the new perspective.
