Against terricide: Envisioning paths: Towards pluriversal transitions

Thanks very much, Aude, for your invitation to write down some of the ideas on the notion of the pluriverse that I have been gathering out of many sources, as they have emerged from a diversity of sites and struggles. Let me answer this first question at some length and then attempt to give you concise answers to the other questions – with the proviso that each question would warrant a book chapter at the very least! This is an auspicious sign, because it means that lots of people are already saying interesting things about the subject at hand. What I will say is my own processing of this ongoing collective thinking.

Abstract

Thanks very much, Aude, for your invitation to write down some of the ideas on the notion of the pluriverse that I have been gathering out of many sources, as they have emerged from a diversity of sites and struggles. Let me answer this first question at some length and then attempt to give you concise answers to the other questions – with the proviso that each question would warrant a book chapter at the very least! This is an auspicious sign, because it means that lots of people are already saying interesting things about the subject at hand. What I will say is my own processing of this ongoing collective thinking.
