Abstract: In this article, we turn to the question of relational ethics at universities. Our inquiry was guided by theoretical~philosophical readings of Donna Haraway’s (2016a) Staying with the Trouble and Erin Manning’s (2018) “Neurodiversity, Black Life, and the University as We Know It.” These texts raised for us questions about relational ontologies, with both human and more-than-human entities. We share personal experiences grappling with relationality in our teaching, research, and daily practices. Relational ethics open space for us to begin imagining a different university in an age where stories and enactments centered in anti-relational capacities dominate.
Robbins et al. (Thu,) studied this question.
