<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">WHAT ARE YOU UNSETTLED ABOUT? Is it good or necessary to be settled? Can unsettlement generate other ways of worlding, other paths to re-existence? Arguably one of the recurrent human conditions, physical and psychological,
existential and political unsettlement begs for reflection and acts as a key to understanding of the present crisis and possible ways to refuturing. The monograph that has been officially released on March 17, 2023, within the Book Series Routledge Advances
in Feminist Studies and Intersectionality, uses an interdisciplinary inter-mediational approach to reflect on the relational complexity of unsettlement as a predominant sensibility of the present époque. Narratives of Unsettlement tackle interrelated aspects
of unsettlement including temporality, the disconcerting effects of the Anthropocene, the biomedical facets of unsettlement, and the post-pandemic futures. It uses a chimeric approach combining essayistic and speculative fiction writing methods, negotiating
rational, affective and imaginative ways of inquiry, and showing rather than merely explaining. The book poses questions, but gives no ready-made answers, and invites us to think together on the unsettlement as a negatively global human condition that can
be collectively made into a generative move of resurgence and refuturing. Contributing to critical reflections on the main features and sensibilities of the current époque, Narratives of Unsettlement will be of interest to scholars and undergraduate and graduate
students, as well as the general public, interested in critical global and future perspectives, in decolonial research, gender studies, and posthumanities.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
