On the other hand the practice of collective politics needs to be studied through historical ethnography if we are to understand what might make people's actions effective. This book suggests a research agenda designed to maximize the political leverage of ordinary people faced with ever more remote states and technologies that make capitalism increasingly rapacious.

Through a careful examination of medieval, early modern and contemporary lifeworlds, these essays collectively argue against ecological anthropocentricity. Sheep, wolves, camels, flowers, chairs, magnets, landscapes, refuse and gems are more than mere objects. They act; they withdraw; they make demands; they connect within lively networks that might foster a new humanism, or that might proceed with indifference towards human affairs. Through what ethics do we respond to these activities and forces? To what futures do these creatures and objects invite us, especially when they appear within the texts and cultures of the "distant" past?MineralsSocial aspectsPlantsSocial aspectsAnimalsSocial aspectsAgent (Philosophy)AnthropomorphismMineralsSocial aspects.PlantsSocial aspects.AnimalsSocial aspects.Agent (Philosophy)Anthropomorphism.Cohen Jeffrey Jeromeedt1089358Cohen Jeffrey JeromeMdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910140402103321Animal, Vegetable, Mineral: Ethics and Objects3660080UNINA
