Abstract
Posthumanist thinking opens new possibilities for research that informs new imaginaries for teaching and learning in environmental education. Posthumanism attends to decentering the human, by seeking the means to acknowledge and navigate our symbiotic relationship of being in the world with a host of others. A posthumanist perspective therefore takes seriously the need to halt the “anthropological machine,” the constant “production” of absolute dividing lines between humans and the rest of the natural world....... By unpacking posthumanism and how it aligns with environmental education, the authors of this article aim to generate thought-provoking ideas for educators, researchers, and authors who are exploring and writing papers on this topic. The entry is divided into thirteen sections.
