Book Description
This monograph, 'Plasti(e)cological Thinking: Working out an (Infra)structural Geoerotics, ' seeks to put forward 'plasti(e)cological thinking' as an advanced and 'new' epistemic framework which can facilitate readers to think beyond the stratified planetarity that ends up breaking the earth down into territories and strata, blocs and codes, fragments and pieces, 'sides' and 'besides.' 'Plasti(e)cological thinking' is at once grounded in the logics of 'deterritorialization' and 'rhizomatics' thereby calling the structured and well-thought-out ways of looking into planetary phenomena into question and at times contingent upon the pervasive trajectories of 'zoe-politics' which enables it to cut across varied segmentarities on the 'Plane of Consistency'. Divided into three chapters, this book draws on critical theory, continental thinking, and certain Indian eco-texts to put a spotlight on the nuanced operation of 'plasti(e)cological thinking'. In a nutshell, this book stands wedded to the production of the 'new' and is a contribution to the domain of planetary thinking.
