Abstract
Abstract. The ecological crisis is challenging the foundational premises of
modern political vocabulary, including the nature–society dualism. Notions of ontological politics and the ontological turn are employed to illustrate the consequences of this dualism, its crisis, and the potential for a
political constitution beyond it. Drawing on experiences in agro-ecology,
recent developments in movements for climate justice and land protection,
and the approaches of social movements against neoliberal globalisation,
the article explores the renewed interest in ontological political questions.
The author elaborates on the ontological proposition for a world of many
worlds and asserts its validity against objections of perceived indifference
targeted at relational ontologies.
Keywords: ontological politics, world of many worlds, nature–society dualism.
