The thesis I will defend is that the posthuman subject is a materially embedded, multi-layered, nomadic entity (Braidotti, 1994; 2011), engaging in inter-relations with human and non-human agents.

Posthuman knowledge, as Braidotti understands it, is not so much an alternative form of knowledge as a critical call: a call to build a multi-layered and multi-directional project that displaces What Braidotti refers to as the posthuman predicament, or living in the times of the posthuman, requires humans to think beyond their traditional humanist limitations and embrace the risks that becoming-other-than-human brings. She steers a complex and sophisticated course between the antihumanism that has been the The posthuman condition, for Braidotti, is as much about d e a t ha si ti sa b o u tl i f e : ‘ bio-power and necro-politics are two sides of the same coin ’ (Braidotti, 2013, p. 122). differences, as expressed effectively by Rosi Braidotti: «What Braidotti refers to as the posthuman predicament, or living in the times of the posthuman, requires humans to think beyond their traditional humanist limitations and embrace the risks that becoming-other-than-human beings»12. A complete posthumanism, thus, coincides with This Braidotti follows with innumerable inquisitive innuendoes concerning the ramifications for a creative and aesthetic posthuman future where different power relations may emerge. Braidotti also asserts (and demonstrates) the importance of combining theoretical concerns with a serious commitment to producing socially and politically relevant Posthuman knowledge, as Braidotti understands it, is not so much an alternative form of knowledge as a critical call: a call to build a multi-layered and multi-directional project that displaces anthropocentrism while pursuing the analysis of the discriminatory and violent aspects of human activity and interaction wherever they occur.
