This book presents a novel and systematic social theory of soil,
and is representative of the rising interest in 'the material' in
social sciences. Bringing together new modes of 'critical
description' with speculative practices and methods of inquiry, it
contributes to the exploration of current transformations in
socioecologies, as well as in political and artistic practices, in
order to address global ecological change. The chapters in this
edited volume challenge scholars to attend more carefully to the
ways in which they think about soil, both materially and
theoretically. Contributors address a range of topics, including
new ways of thinking about the politics of caring for soils; the
ecological and symbiotic relations between soils; how the
productive capacities and contested governance of soils are
deployed as matters of political concern; and indigenous ways of
knowing and being with soil.
