Eva Meijer Multispecies Assemblies

Produktbeskrivelse

Animals speak. Plants do too. Seas and mountains are not a mute background to human actions, but have interests and agency. Many more-than-human beings are political actors. Allofus are partofa webofrelations in which we affect others and are affected bythem. To counterthecurrent ecological destruction and find more just ways to co-exist, humans need new waysofdoing politics with other earth beings. In thisbook, Dutch philosopher Eva Meijer develops such a new political model:themultispecies assembly. Multispecies assemblies are a formofdirect democracy in which some beings speak forthemselves and others are represented. Living differently as humans is possible, but we must begin to listen to others, and learn fromthem.
