Textul de pe ultima copertă
This book takes a unique approach to the ethnographic and analytical explorations of ecologies as entangled in their makings. It positions its arguments through emerging anthropocene contexts as entanglements across hybrid ecologies that unravel. The subsumed relationships between actors and the unprecedented interactions across the human and non-human entities brings up unique problematics. The book depends on existing literature, ethnographic work, and the close introspection of immediate geographies interspersed with the pertinent debates. Reconfiguration of relationships through changing orders and regimes towards the neo-liberal global moments of places manifest as matters of designs and demarcations. The chapters point at the often-unintended outcomes of such designs as it becomes evident from the meandering rivers, rains, wetlands, unprecedented floods, invasive ecologies, and ‘encounters’ with the wild. This work is a careful enquiry into ecologies in the making through ethnographies from Kerala, South-West India.

Caracteristici
Ethnographically focused on regions in Kerala, but this leads to non-ethnographic extrapolation of ideas Draws on the ways of ethologists, zoogeographers and ecologists to deal with this interagentivity Examines the material effects in their relationalities, manifest in configurations of ecologies
