PDF-[READ]-Vibrant Matter: A Political Ecology of Things (a John Hope Franklin Center Book)

In Vibrant Matter the political theorist Jane Bennett renowned for her work on nature ethics and affect shifts her focus from the human experience of things to things themselves Bennett argues that political theory needs to do a better job of recognizing the active participation of nonhuman forces in events Toward that end she theorizes a vital materiality that runs through and across bodies both human and nonhuman Bennett explores how political analyses of public events might change were we to acknowledge that agency always emerges as the effect of ad hoc configurations of human and nonhuman forces She suggests that recognizing that agency is distributed this way and is not solely the province of humans might spur the cultivation of a more responsible ecologically sound politics a politics less devoted to blaming and condemning individuals than to discerning the web of forces affecting situations and eventsBennett examines the political and theoretical implications of vital materialism through extended discussions of commonplace things and physical phenomena including stem cells fish oils electricity metal and trash She reflects on the vital power of material formations such as landfills which generate lively streams of chemicals and omega3 fatty acids which can transform brain chemistry and mood Along the way she engages with the concepts and claims of Spinoza Nietzsche Thoreau Darwin Adorno and Deleuze disclosing a long history of thinking about vibrant matter in Western philosophy including attempts by Kant Bergson and the embryologist Hans Driesch to name the vital force inherent in material forms Bennett concludes by sketching the contours of a green materialist ecophilosophy.
