Intermezzo

This intermezzo is a response to extraction and extractive practices. It argues scholars need to take up Donna Haraway&s;s tentacular thinking, Capitalocene, Plantationocene, and Chthulucene, and Katherine McKittrick&s;s evaluation of the impact of the plantation, as these concepts and provocations can help find new ways to engage and critically analyse the damage capitalism has done, and is doing. Working with these concepts can help us find more creative and relational ways to be connected to non-human and multi-species kin. Towards the end of the intermezzo, there are some examples of how people and organisations are responding to the impact of the Capitalocene, Plantationocene, and Chthulucene practices. These examples of planetary justice provide some hope for more recuperative ways to live in the world.
