Abstract

As a follow-up to the author's breakthrough article envisioning a new sub-field of 'Fear' Studies a decade ago, this new article takes a leap into contextualizing what the author has dubbed the Fear Problem (and/or "culture of fear") as a wicked problem in the Anthropocene....Fearanalysis, analogous to psychoanalysis, ought to provide a powerful tool and self-reflexive awareness useful to cultural studies and critical methodologies everywhere.
