Making Kin: Ecofeminist Essays from Singapore
Making Kin: Ecofeminist Essays from Singapore

Ecofeminist exploration of Singaporean women's connection to nature.

This book is a powerful collection of ecofeminist essays that brings together the voices of diverse Singaporean women. Through personal stories, the writers delve into themes of caregiving, interconnections with the natural world, and indigenous wisdom. By blurring the boundaries between personal and political, Making Kin invites readers to rethink their relationship with nature and confront pressing environmental issues. It's a must-read for anyone interested in intersectional environmentalism and seeking new perspectives on gender, climate change, and reciprocity.

Description

Making Kin aspires to be ecofeminist in nature, in terms of acknowledging the intersectional mode of relations between gender and other socially constructed markers of identity like race, class, culture and nation, and how these intersect with pertinent environmental issues. With a focus on a politics of relations, Making Kin contemplates the Singapore woman writer’s place on earth from the perspective of the domestic and private to re-centre the woman in the discourse of politics, environment, ecology and nation. It is our hope that with this anthology, women writers in Singapore may chart a new cartography on the map of Singapore’s literary scene, writing urgently about gender, place, nature, climate change and other critical environmental issues that they find themselves entangled in and empathetic towards.
