ABSTRACT The need to move away from the grip of the Anthropocene in all of its manifestations is now urgent. As Einstein might have said, ‘you can't solve the problems of the Anthropocene by using the same anthropocentric thinking that created those problems in the first place’. In addition to scientific and technological change, there must be, in lock step, cultural, ethical and legal change. Radical change is needed in all of these domains as many of our older practices and concepts have, sadly, become redundant for all cultures (old and new) on the planet. The Anthropocene is a powerful colonising agent and it ultimately desolates all that it touches. The antidote to the dysbiosis of the Anthropocene is the Symbiocene. Here, a powerful new meme based on the mutualistic features of grand-scale symbiosis in life can inform every aspect of humanity. Rights, it is argued, have crucially served to entrench separation between human and non- human beings in a competitive and adversarial legal and political system. I offer ‘ghehds’, as a concept befitting the Symbiocene, a more life-inclusive, descriptive ethical approach to all interspecies relationships. Ghehds (from the root ghehd, to unite, with etymological connections to modern words such as: to gather, together and good) will help bring about the extinction of rights and its applications to nature. Instead of a hierarchy of competing rights, assuming autonomous individuals or entities in a contested domain, ghehds respect entitlements of coalescence, vagility, passage, movement and flow within organically and symbiotically unified wholes. Rights assume division, competition and exclusion; ghehds assume unity, cooperation and inclusion. The concept of ghehds is offered as a way of avoiding biological and other forms of extinction.

权利的灭绝和ghehds的灭绝

摘要 现在迫切需要摆脱人类世所有表现形式的控制。正如爱因斯坦可能说过的那样，“你无法通过使用最初造成这些问题的同样的人类中心思想来解决人类世的问题”。除了科技变革，还必须同步进行文化、伦理和法律变革。所有这些领域都需要进行彻底的变革，因为我们许多旧的做法和概念，不幸的是，对于地球上的所有文化（新旧）来说都变得多余了。人类世是一种强大的殖民者，它最终会摧毁它所接触的一切。人类世生态失调的解毒剂是共生世。这里，基于生活中大规模共生的共生特征的强大新模因可以告知人类的各个方面。有人认为，权利在竞争性和对抗性的法律和政治体系中起到了至关重要的作用，以巩固人类与非人类之间的分离。我提供“ghehds”，作为一个适合共生世的概念，一种对所有种间关系更具包容性、描述性的伦理方法。Ghehds（从词根 ghehd 开始，与现代词的词源联系，例如：收集、聚集和良好）将有助于消除权利及其对自然的应用。与竞争权利的等级不同，假设在一个有争议的领域中是自治的个人或实体，ghehds 尊重合并、可变性、通道、在有机和共生统一的整体中运动和流动。权利承担分裂、竞争和排斥；ghehds 假定团结、合作和包容。ghehds 的概念是作为避免生物和其他形式灭绝的一种方式提供的。
