In the article I offer (what I hope is) a conciliatory response to a series of Marxist critiques levelled against theories of new materialism in recent years. The short story: They need each other.
I have wanted to write something like this since I first read Malm's The Progress of this Storm in 2017 that set up poor conditions for a constructive dialogue between new materialism and marxist thinking.
Let me know what you think!
I did not expect my first "accepted without revisions"-article to be a defence of theories of new materialism in a critical theory journal, but here we are: https://doi.org/10.1177/07255136241240086
My article about the altered forest landscapes of the Anthropocene is now out with the amazing @journalofpoliticalecology: https://doi.org/10.2458/jpe.5224
If you are into wolves, wildfires, or the work of Anna Tsing, it might be of interest! 🌱
Together with good colleagues, we have a new paper out in the journal Climatic Change about how #CitizensAssemblies can help mobilize people around climate politics. In short, we argue that more focus is needed on the links between assemblies and civil society.
It's open access and available here for those interested:

I rarely share my work in here, but I recently had a paper, which is quite dear to me, accepted in Journal of Political Ecology. It’s a speculative piece on the conditions of livability in a world under siege by Anthropocene proliferations. It began with a walk in the forest during the early pandemic.
The preprint is available here: https://static-curis.ku.dk/portal/files/345500037/Preprint_JPE_LivingWithOthers.pdf I’d love to hear your thoughts!
🚨 Judith Butler is visiting Copenhagen in early May and giving a public lecture on 'climate sorrow'. The registration is now open: https://cape.ku.dk/eng/calendar/2023/climate-sorrow-lecture/
We have launched a new green network for researchers in Denmark. You can read more on: http://www.dgfn.org/en 🟢
A quick question for @academicchatter. I’ve received an early Christmas gift. My book manuscript based on my dissertation has been sent to reviewers at a university press. Meanwhile, I’ve received an R&R at a journal I like.
Here’s the catch: the R&R article is a reframed version of one of the chapters of the book. What is good practice here? Is it okay for one of the book chapters to have been published as a research article before the book comes out?
