Interdependency

Interdependency denotes the relational condition in which humans, non-humans, and technological systems are entangled in reciprocal forms of influence and reliance. In contrast to notions of independence or autonomy, interdependency foregrounds the mutual vulnerabilities and co-constitutions that structure ecological and social life. Within Anthropocene discourse, interdependency highlights that human survival is inseparable from planetary processes, multispecies communities, and infrastructures. The concept aligns with posthumanist perspectives that decentre humanity, advocating for non-dualistic understandings of nature–culture relations. In landscape architecture, interdependency suggests design practices attentive to symbiotic relations between species, and to the maintenance of shared ecologies across scales. It is increasingly framed not as a limitation but as an opportunity for conviviality, justice, and re-imagined forms of cohabitation.
