Plastics, Environment, Culture and the Politics of Waste examines
plastic as a distinct cultural, political, and environmental
phenomenon. It outlines the intricate relationship with plastic
that humanity has been building over the course of the twentieth
and twenty-first centuries, drawing on examples from history, the
arts, and literature, as well as examining the place of plastics in
the current health, environmental, and energy crises. The aim of
this book is to reveal the complex nature of plastics, from their
rapid incorporation into our advancing ways of life, to the
reenvisioning of plastics' role in human life and how, through
abundant production, consumption, and disposal of plastics,
humanity has initiated a toxic invasion of natural environments and
human and nonhuman bodies. Bringing together various perspectives
from the humanities, this edited collection contributes to the
ongoing research on plastics and petrocultures and emphasizes the
crucial significance of addressing the plastic crisis through
culture.
