Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the meaning of school geography education based on the post-anthropocentric perspective in the Anthropocene. To this end, it looks at the characteristics and perspectives of the Anthropocene that the ecological crisis comes from human activities that have become a geological force that has a decisive impact on global environmental change. Next, it examines the conflicting perspectives surrounding the Anthropocene. The Anthropocenic perspective that humans have come to have geological power requires a new perception of the human-nature relationship. In this respect, it discusses the need for a turn in perception of the human-nature relationship based on post-anthropocentrism in order to overcome the Anthropocene ecological crisis. In the era of ecological catastrophe of the Anthropocene, geography inquiry topics which can investigate the meaning of school geography education based on the post-anthropocentric perspective, will be discussed at the social, political, economic, and emotional dimensions.

본 연구는 탈인간중심주의 관점에 근거하여 인류세에서 학교 지리교육의 의미를 탐색하는데 그 목적을 두고 있다. 이를 위해 먼저 생태위기가 지구환경 변화에 결정적 영향을 미치는 지질학적 힘이 된 인간의 활동으로부터 기인한다라는 인류세의 관점과 이를 둘러싼 상반된 입장을 살펴본다. 인간이 지질학적 힘을 가지게 되었다는 인류세적 관점은 인간-자연 관계에 대한 새로운 인식을 요구한다. 이러한 점에서 인류세적 생태위기를 넘어서기 위해서는 탈인간중심주의에 기반한 인간-자연 관계에 대한 인식 전환이 필요하다는 점을 논의한다. 이어서 인류세의 생태환경 파국 시대에서 탈인간중심주의 관점에 기반한 학교 지리교육의 의미에 대하여 탐색해 볼 수 있는 지리 탐구 주제를 사회적, 정치적, 경제적, 정서적 차원에서 접근하여 논의하고자 한다.
