Document Details : Title: The Need for a Critical Planetary Romanticism Subtitle: An Introduction Author(s): BAUMAN, Whitney Journal: Studies in Interreligious Dialogue Volume: 33 Issue: 1 Date: 2023 Pages: 1-14 DOI: 10.2143/SID.33.1.3292290 Abstract : This article introduces the reader to this special issue, by arguing for a critical planetary romanticism. This neo-romanticism (or new materialism) is not local/bioregional, but rather planetary in scope, and understands humans as creatures among creatures. Furthermore, this critical planetary romanticism understands that different bodies experience the worlds in which we live differently: hence, the critical. This Critical Planetary Romanticism is juxtaposed to 5 other options for future planetary becoming that are highly problematic. Finally, the article calls for re-attunement to our shifting planetary contexts in ways that are more connective and recognizes the suffering caused by the worlds we co-create. |
