Michael Uhall's Noir Materialism: Freedom and Obligation in Political Ecology redefines the relationship between nature and politics, proposing a new philosophy of nature and its implications for political theory. This philosophy challenges fundamental concepts like freedom, obligation, and the subject, highlighting their relevance in addressing the ecological crisis. Uhall engages with key figures such as Hannah Arendt, Roberto Esposito, and F. W. J. Schelling, as well as biopolitics, environmental political thought, new materialism, the ontological turn in anthropology, and film noir. The book argues that only by returning to the nightside of nature can we address the conceptual gridlock impeding our response to the ecological crisis.
