Posthumanist Nomadisms across Non-Oedipal Spatiality

The fifteen articles in Posthumanist Nomadisms trace a fascinating panorama on posthuman interrogations of nomad spatiality, with a special focus on bioethics. The collection questions the order of things beyond human agency, including different kinds of non-human entities -animals, jungles, deserts, oceans, problematizing hybrid, interstitial, intersectional forms of ecology. The volume emphasizes the materiality of human and non-human entanglements, exposing forms of agency with the potential to territorialize through nomad space and re-root over routes. This is a valuable contribution to the study of posthumanism as conceived from a decolonial perspective, including not only non-humans but also the narratives of those who have been dispossessed, displaced, stateless and homeless, all of which camp on errant and transitory spaces.
