Description
The Companion Species Manifesto is a document written by Donna Haraway that discusses the implosion of nature and culture in the joint lives of dogs and people. Haraway argues that dogs are not surrogates for theory, but are instead important members of society who should be given their own rights and treated with respect.
"The Companion Species Manifesto" is about the implosion of nature and culture in the joint lives of dogs and people, who are bonded in "significant otherness". In all their historical complexity, Donna Haraway tells us, dogs matter. They are not surrogates for theory, she says; they are not here just to think with.
