Reviews

""In the face of an unprecedented state of socioecological crises, this collection argues for the need to think more deeply about alternative ways to live and disrupt the deadly cult of modernity."" Tyler McCreary, Florida State University ""The concept of 'territories of life' highlights the struggles of collectives to sustain themselves within liberal settler colonial societies where a modern ontology relies on a separation between the human and nature."" Juanita Sundberg, University of British Columbia
