anthropo-sociological conversations between one of the world's leading anthropologists  Thomas
Hyland Eriksen  and a young scholar  using his groundbreaking overheating approach. From the
pandemic to the spread of nationalism  from the Anthropocene to the Homogenocene  the authors
discuss the most urgent issues of current society: e.g.  the loss of biological and cultural
diversity owing to the forces of globalisation  and the emergence of new forms of diversity
through globalisation and migration  the intersectional dimension of climate change  the
incredible rising of anger demonstrations around the world and resentful  overheated identities
often linked to right-wing nationalism the way digital devices have changed the meaning of
temporality in people's life-worlds  the regulatory and competitive pressures on universities
which are a result of many factors in the intersection of globalisation  massification and
marketisation  youth's weakened belief in progress connected to changes in the contemporary
world  such as growing inequality  political alienation and environmental destruction  recent
pathbreaking research and original theory in sociology and anthropology related to the changes
in an overheated world  and what post-Coronavirus social life might become. Highly topical 
engaging and written in a conversational style  this book is a must-read for social scientists
and discerning lay persons who want a fresh perspective on understanding the critical issues of
our time. This is an open access book.
