Author Description

This special issue of the Journal of Human Rights and the Environment is based around groundbreaking conversation with Professors Jane Bennett and William E Connolly. The result is an engaging, stimulating and imaginative collection of interdisciplinary works, all directly responding to the work of Bennett and Connolly.<br/><br/>In the face of 'Anthropocene' pressures and challenges, moving away from an imaginary of human mastery toward an appreciation of nonhuman and more-than-human agencies is now an urgent ethical task.<br/><br/>This thoughtful, enriching set of essays and conversations offers a unique exploration of themes and questions concerning a lively world 'in trouble'. Provocative, stimulating, playful, insightful, and prescient, the reflections in this book invite readers into imaginative and ecologically open ways of envisioning an entangled world.
