Redefining the Polis

More about the book

Exploring the inherent political nature of humanity, Gerard Kuperus challenges traditional social contract theories by positing that humans have always existed within a political framework. Drawing on the social and political behaviors of animals, he advocates for a redefined understanding of our identities as part of an ecopolitical community that includes all living beings and inanimate objects. By recognizing the political essence of nature, Kuperus encourages a transformative perspective on our relationships and the pressing challenges we face today.
