Species and Machines

- The Human Subjugation of Nature

Om Species and Machines

This book rethinks the relationship between nature and human beings by describing their entanglements with machines. Reworking central ideas of critical theory to uncover the suppression of nature through technology, it is particularly concerned with the ways in which human social forms have actively subjugated and destroyed other species in order to enhance their own social power. Engaging with Marx and Marxist ecology, it examines the suppression and destruction of one particular species through technology, as well as the emergence of the `human encampments¿ of the cities, the rise of mobile cultures, and the relationship between machines of memory and the `capturing¿ of nature.
