Environmentalism and Marxism (7): The End of Man

1 year ago
7

#7 explores the ideas of Donna Haraway and Rosi Braidotti. Specifically, their development of an idea implicit within Marxist philosophy and emphasised by Gramsci as being a specific avenue of attack. Haraway, much like Bookchin, advocates the union with technology and later with animals to generate respectively, cyborgs and kin. Braidotti on the other hand subscribes to the school which develops the post-human, going beyond the present conceptions of humanity, the state, state sovereignty, the form of democracy and so on. The kin/post-human lays the foundations for a new social contract and movement toward an international covenant, the global citizen.
