Cover Story: Drawing on scholarly works from a variety of disciplines, “Information Infrastructures and the Future of Ecological Citizenship in the Anthropocene” claims that ecological citizenship, as both an idea and a practice, hinges on infrastructural compatibility. The article examines what the concept of information infrastructure offers for the understanding of ecological citizenship. After entering a dialogue with the literatures of citizenship studies and information infrastructures, the article suggests a conceptual framework based on Star and Ruhleder’s eight components of infrastructure to explore challenges and promises of ecological citizenship in the age of neoliberal Anthropocene. By doing this, it also brings the Anthropocene into question from an information infrastructure perspective. View this paper
