Two Senses of the Post in Posthuman” Pal Ahluwalia -- Chapter 9. “Information-power: Teletechnology and the Ethics of Human-Animal Difference” Samrat Sengupta -- Chapter 10. “Durga, Supermom, and the Posthuman Mother India” Sucharita Sarkar -- Chapter 11. “Beyond the Mother-machine: Surrogacy and Neo-eugenics in India” Amrita Pande -- Part III: Reconstructions -- Chapter 12. “P2P and Planetary Futures” Jose Ramos, Michel Bauwens and Vasilis Kostakis -- Chapter 13. “Decolonizing the State of Nature: Notes on Political Animism” Federico Luisetti -- Chapter 14. “Spiritual Pragmatics: New Pathways of Transformation for the Posthuman” Ananta Kumar Giri -- Chapter 15. “Have Humans Always Been Posthuman: A Spiritual Genealogy of the Posthuman” Francesca Ferrando -- Chapter 16. “Individuation, Cosmogenesis and Technology: Sri Aurobindo and Gilbert Simondon” Debashish Banerji.
This volume is a critical exploration of multiple posthuman possibilities in the 21st century and beyond. Due to the global engagement with advanced technology, we are witness to a species-wise blurring of boundaries at the edge of the human. On the one hand, we find ourselves in a digital age in which human identity is being transformed through networked technological intervention, a large part of our consciousness transferred to "smart" external devices. On the other hand, we are assisted—or assailed—by an unprecedented proliferation of quasi-human substitutes and surrogates, forming a spectrum of humanoids with fuzzy borders. Under these conditions, critical posthumanism asks, who will occupy and control our planet: Will the "superhuman" merely serve as another sign under which new regimes of dominance are spread across the earth? Or can we discover or invent technologies of existence to counter such dominance? It is issues such as these which are at the heart of this new volume of explorations of the posthuman. The essays in this volume offer leading-edge thought on the subject, with special emphases on postmodern and postcolonial futures. They engage with questions of subalternity and feminism vis-à-vis posthumanism, dealing with issues of subjugation, dispensability and surrogacy, as well as the possibilities of resistance, ethical politics or subjective transformation from South Asian archives of cultural and spiritual practice. This volume is a valuable addition to the on-going global dialogues on posthumanism, indispensable to those, from across several disciplines, who are interested in postcolonial and planetary futures.
