| Abstract: | The earth is reclaiming its agency. In Down to Earth: Politics in the New Climatic Regime, Bruno Latour presents a timely philosophical account of this reclamation and its concomitant demand for an urgent reconceptualization of humanity and its relationship to the earth. Latour’s central hypothesis is that we are experiencing a ‘new climatic regime’ (p. 2) in which the earth is reasserting its agency – through dire environmental changes and challenges – in response to our actions.
