Honourable Mention, ICQI 2022 Outstanding Qualitative Book Award
Entanglement in the World's Becoming and the Doing of New
Materialist Inquiry explores new materialist concepts and the ways
in which they provoke an opening up of thought about being human,
and about being more-than-human. The more-than-human refers, here,
to the world that we are of - a world that includes humans, who are
emergent and permeable, and all of the animal and earth others they
intra-act with. It explores how we affect those others and are
affected. This book engages intimately in encounters of various
kinds, some drawn from the author's everyday life, some from the
research projects she has engaged in over several decades, and some
from others' research. It works at the interface of living- and
writing-as-inquiry, delving into the rich seam of conceptual
possibilities opened up by Deleuze and Guattari, and Barad, and by
new materialist inquiry more broadly. It brings not just words to
the task, but also art, photopraphs, movement, memories, bodies,
sound, touch, things. It delves into the ways in which the
entangled dynamics of social, material and semiotic flows and
forces make up the diffractive movements through which life
emerges, assembles itself, and endures. New materialist concepts,
as they are explored here, offer new and emergent approaches to
life itself, and to ways in which we might research our lives as
they are intricately enfolded in the life of the earth.
