Communicative Justice in the Pluriverse powerfully demonstrates why decolonizing communications is essential to all pluriversal politics. Methodically organized around the cogent concept of communicative justice, each chapter brilliantly disrupts dominant practices of communicative violence while creatively illuminating multiple paths towards a media ecology indispensable for the flourishing of the pluriverse and a renewed ethics of interdependence and care. The volume's approach is decidedly transnational and inter-epistemic, making it eminently applicable to many fields, from communications, global, and development studies to political ecology and cutting-edge ontologically oriented pursuits. Arturo Escobar, Emeritus Professor of Anthropology, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, USA Valuable studies from across the planet of the material and cultural dimensions of communicative justice, putting in dialogue theories of the pluriverse with studies of everyday practices, ranging, for example, from the embodiment of women's knowledge and solidarity in Aymara textile-making and Spanish popular music, to post-neoliberal development struggles in Okinawa, Malawi, and Ecuador. Useful for students in both the global south and north. Dorothy Kidd, Professor of Media Studies, University of San Francisco, USA
