The Non-Human Turn

The Non-Human Turn refers to a shift in various fields, such as philosophy, literature, and environmental studies, where attention moves away from a human-centered view of the world. Instead, it emphasizes the importance of non-human entities, like animals, plants, technologies, and ecosystems. This perspective encourages us to reconsider our relationships with the natural world and recognize the interconnectedness of all life. By acknowledging the agency and significance of non-humans, this movement challenges traditional ways of thinking and advocates for a more inclusive understanding of existence that encompasses both human and non-human experiences.
