O My Friends, There is No Friend
Friendship as a political practice can help us imagine a world beyond ethnonationalism and ecological crises and find new ways to be together.
Can friendship as a political practice offer enough traction to imagine a borderless world? The startling contemporary rise in aggressive ethno-nationalism and end-times ecological crises have the same root: an inability to be together with humans as much as the natural world. Matt Hern and Am Johal suggest that porous renditions of being-together animated by friendship can spark a repoliticization of the political to surpass the foreclosures of the state, speak to a freedom of movement, and find renovated relationships with the more-than-human. This volume includes interviews with Jean-Luc Nancy, Leela Gandhi and Leanne Simpson.
Matt Hern is a founder and co-director of Solid State Community Industries.
Am Johal is the Director of SFU's Vancity Office of Community Engagement.
