Abstract

This contribution to “Viewpoints: Mapping the Planetary” offers a short essay that traces the elements of global thinking in planetary formulations. These particularly invoke the narrow anthropocentric perspectives that emerge from Uxeküll’s theoretical framings of the umwelt. As such the short ranges from the early 20th century to the present, specifically in the form of LunaNet, an internet system designed for lunar occupation and habitation.
