Description
The Activist Humanist: Form and Method in the Climate Crisis
By Caroline Levine, Princeton University Press 2023
This thought-provoking book argues that humanists have the tools to mobilize political power and the responsibility to use them to address climate change. Levine explores how formalist methods can be used in the fight for climate justice.
The author identifies three major infrastructural forms - routines, pathways, and enclosures - as crucial to sustaining collective life in the face of growing precarity. She offers a series of questions and exercises to guide readers into political action, making this book an essential handbook for prospective activist-scholars.
