- More about Feminist Reconfigurings of Alien Encounters: Ethical Co-Existence in More-than-Human Worlds
Feminist Reconfigurings of Alien Encounters reclaims the concept of alien encounters with strange but queerly loved companions, such as vulgar slugs, diatoms, and familiars, to establish more-than-human, bio- and geo-egalitarian co-existence on a planet in trouble. The book is informed by feminist posthumanisms and co-created with a spectral community of more-than-humans, focusing on questions of ethics, aesthetics, and methodologies to co-exist response-ably rather than based on modern human beliefs in exceptionalism and entitlement.

Feminist Reconfigurations of Alien Encounters reclaims the concept of alien encounters alongside strange but queerly beloved companions: Vulgar slugs, diatoms (microalgae), and familiars (spirit guides of witches). The book's three human co-authors ponder: what would it take to establish more-than-human, bio- and geo-egalitarian co-existence on a planet in trouble? This playfully crafted mixed-genre book is informed by feminist posthumanisms and co-created with a spectral community of more-than-humans who are respectfully summoned to contribute with their perspectives. The entangled artistic-philosophical-poetic investigations focus on questions of ethics, aesthetics, and methodologies to co-exist responsively rather than based on modern human beliefs in exceptionalism and entitlement to sovereignty, control, and conquest of more-than-human worlds.
Feminist Reconfigurations of Alien Encounters is intended for broad global audiences of researchers, teachers, professionals, NGOs, politicians, students from undergraduate to postgraduate levels, artists, writers, activists, and artivists who are interested in entangled artistic-poetic-philosophical modes of understanding the world as well as in ecology, new feminist materialism, critical posthumanism, and questions about radically rethinking and reimagining human/more-than-human relations on Earth.
