520 _aNever fully lined up, the temporalities of nature, sciences and societies are today in a state of profound discrepancy that sets them at the very center of the crisis of the Earth system, which is also a ‘crisis of the future’. Neglected during the historical period of the ‘great acceleration’ of the second half of the 20th century, the relevance of taking into account those intertwined temporalities surges today as an emergency, if not a sheer panic. Thus, we are compelled to develop an effort unheard of for the design of an understanding of time likely to be actuated at all relevant levels, in both an interdisciplinary and a transdisciplinary way, in order to embed the Earth system in a transition process aimed at the setting of a viable and livable system. Rooted in the critical thinking and the scientific proposals of the epistemic community of the journal Natures Sciences Sociétés, founded in 1993, this paper aims at proposing a clinical analysis of ‘presentism’ as a paradigm, before exploring the possible new ways of mobilizing history on the one side, foresight studies on the other, in order to build an involved and responsible conception of temporalities in the context of the strengthening fluctuations of the Anthropocene.
